Okay, normally I score my range ammo at Wal*Mart or Dick’s, but this is ridiculous.
I haven’t seen .45 ACP at any of the 5 'Marts in my area, and I was laughed at when asking about it at Dick’s last week.
Am I missing something? My dad just picked up 600 rounds of 9mm at Wal*Mart without even getting excited.
WTF, over?
.45 is hit or miss in my area…sometimes they have some times they dont…Just depends on how lucky you are that day…
What are you paying up that way for the 100ct winchester whitebox??
I know our wally’s had some a few months ago…I can check this weekend if you want. Friggin shipping them up there would be murder from down here though.
around $37-38 (before tax for WWB 100 round)
When they have hit WWB JHP 100 round are usually $48 (generally about $10 more)
I scored some Federal 9mm at Walmart about 2 mos. ago. Around here, SoCal., you have to just be in the right place at the right time to score. People that keep track of the Walmart ammo shipments get there early and wipe them out. I have a couple of gun stores here that have Fiocchi 45 acp, brass case 230 gr. FMJ for 21.95 pretty much every time I have gone in. That’s about as good as it gets here.
Start reloading. Thats about the only way I have been able to constantly shoot it. Having 1000 rounds loaded with components for about 10k more is a very comforting feeling.
Most definitely…it is the only way I can afford it, I almost never shoot factory ammo in my 9 & 45, most of my shooting is combat type matches.
I saw 4 100 rd boxes of WWB at Wal-Mart last night.
Lucky bastard!
'Round here the WWB is going for ~$39.00 at the 'Mart and ~$50.00 at Dick’s.
I mean, I haven’t even seen JHPs…
About a year ago, I ran across a deal on Sportsmans Guide for 20rd boxes of Hornady TAP 230g ammo for $14/box. Needless to say, I bought 20 boxes.
I’ve also been ordering WWB .45 from them in 500 lots. Up until this last order, which is back ordered until July, I was getting them in about 10 days for way better than Wal-Mart. I’ve got enough for the Magpul class and for a few more training sessions, but after that, I’ll be back on the hunt for more. Almost all my ammo has been bought online over the past 3 years. It’s just easier than hunting it down and cheaper than the rip off artists at most shops around here.
What is the new price for 50rnd WWB at Wally World now. Gander Mountian has WWB for $30/box!
Needed some for an upcoming class so I got some Federal from Palmetto and some WWB from AmmuntionToGo. They had some Hornady 5.56 75gr loads too 
I was at a Walmart last week where he was just unloading from the truck. WWB was $33.00 and hollow point was $40.00… was at agun store, same price on theirs and they had maybe 30 boxes…
I agree about reloading.
I can load 230 grain lead round nose for less than $100 per thousand. It takes a little more effort to clean the gun but the savings is well worth the effort.
I look everytime i go to Walmart. I haven’t seen any for 2 months now. There is a limit of 5 boxes for the Walmart i go to, but they never have 5 boxes of anything except 22lr.
I bought six 100 rd. 9mm WWB for 20.97 a piece a week ago. Though it’s not always on the shelf, between the four Wal-marts in my area I have been able to get a decent supply of 9mm. I don’t see .45 as much and don’t shoot a lot of it, but if I see it I’ll usually pick up a box or so, at 31.00 bucks.
Haven’t seen anything decent at Wally since last Fall, local Bass Pro just started getting some handgun ammo on the shelves. I don’t remember exact prices, not outragous, but a little more than in the past.
I reload my own .45 ACP and LC, .38 and .44, but like to keep some factory stuff on hand too!
Good luck…
I’ll tell you where to find .45 if you tell me where to find 9mm
I called one of my local gun stores and asked if they had .45 ammo. They said yes, but the limit was 5 boxes at a time. I made the mistake of not asking what it cost and went there and bought three boxes at $32.50 a box!!! Ouch.
I shit ye not: I was at Wal*Mart looking for some sort of tackle/storage box for spare parts, and curiously went by the ammo section.
I counted 58 boxes of 50-round 9mm. 2900 f’in rounds. Not a .45 in the place.
What’s boggling my mind is that I’ve always thought 9mm was more common than .45.
