Well both wal marts up where i am have both raised there ammo prices. 1 box of winchester 40 is now $45.00. I will not be buying anything else from either one of these wal marts and i advised both the managers of this and why. The problem i have with this is wal mart always tells you what they think or want you to hear instead of ordering what people are asking for they are ordering new ammo and jacking the prices way up. Not gonna happen here. I will go bone dry before anyone takes away from my pockets like this. I am sure there may be others who will let them rob them but not from this old boy. That is all i am gonna say about it. SCREW WAL MART
 
The Walmart's around here haven't had ammo in stock for awhile. Besides my LGS is still selling ammo close to normal prices. I picked up 200rds of .45 today for $80. Happy to see some people aren't price gouging!
 
I just found 40cal winchester 165gn for 39 per 100 in Tacoma wa. Took everything they had. And same brand 9mm 115s for 28. Got all of those also
 
If it's Super-X Silvertip than I'd say it's a damn good deal...
Buy all you can!

I agree. that is spot of for a box of 50 silvertips... any other premium self defense ammo... $20-$25 per 20 rds. If its fmj target ammo..maybe for a box of 100 or more..

Save your brass and reload. I save 30-50% per box by reloading. the initial overhead for the equipment hurts, but worth it in the long run.
 
Hey Itch: Chill a bit. Walmart is probably one of the few retailers who will give you a truthful and fair price on literally everything in the store. If the price has doubled, guess what---probably their cost has doubled. My firearm of choice is an FN 5.7X28. I have 12 boxes of 50 rounds of the ammo that I purchased for $20 from Cabelas. Current going prices on this ammo from my gunshop ($55) and on the internet ($60-70) are crazy. Heck my firearm alone that I paid $900 for less than a year ago is now going for $1600-2000. Go the Cabelas website or any of the gun sites and you are lucky if you can find ANY ammo of any caliber for sale---when there were 10 or 20 choices several months ago, there are now maybe 1 or 2 choices and they are more premium ammo and not target stuff. This is not a Walmart issue, it is a fascist moslem issue who uses "gun control" etal to keep people's minds off the real issues of the day (debt and spending) that are sinking this country--as the posters in my gunshop show, the real gun salesman of the year is none other than the piece of garbage in the whitehouse---if you then buy a gun, you have to buy the ammo and wallah--supply and demand kick in. My understanding is that ammo makers are working 24/7 but there has been such a rush on guns that ammo inventories/supplies are not there anymore, even for Walmart.
 
months ago, before the current crisis hit, many of my suppliers were warning customers about the coming price increases, the fact that prices have risen should be of no surprise. the big issue is the government buying up so much ammo and creating shortages of some calibers
 
I heard the gov shut down supply of 5.7 to civilians. My dealer and the mega gun range in my state told me they did and only get 2 boxes a month now
