Limit 1 bulk box.

$119 for 200 rounds. Winchester.

There were plenty available at both locations this morning.

Not the best deal ever but not the worst.

EDIT: Hammond also had some 9mm FMJ. Federal and Blazer I think.

Happy hunting.

Happy hoarding.

FIFY**

All you MF'ers are just driving up the price for everyone else and creating your own 'pandemic'

I’m a MF for buying ammo and helping others out who might be looking to do the same?

There’s a 1 box limit. Hardly hoarding. Not sure why you’re so emotional about free market capitalism.

Like I said - not the best deal, not the worst deal. But for a person who needs rounds in the short term you could do worse.

Bought a new optic and want to sight it in.

Found a deal on magazines and would like to fill them up.

Going out to the camp this weekend and would like to get a couple magazines through the weapon.

Because marksmanship is a perishable skill, and it’s never a bad idea to have the means to hone that skill.

Those are all valid reasons to your completely asinine question. That’s like asking “why does my vehicle speedometer go up to 1XX if the speed limit is 70?”

Idiots will run in and spend money they don’t have to hoard a bullet that they don’t need

You sure jumped in there with a goofy perspective that got a bunch of holes poked in it.

Why do you care what someone spends their money on? It’s legal. It’s taxed. What’s your concern?

Or is it your position that free Americans shouldn’t be allowed to legally exchange tender for legal items they desire? If so, I think there’s a name for that condition.

Spending $100 isn’t an issue for all of us.

Or do you long for a society where you’re told how much to spend and upon what items you can spend it on?

I bought a box of turkey shells at Academy in Collierville, TN yesterday. They only had 5 or 6 boxes total in there and all were TSS turkeys loads.

They let me get 2 bulk boxes. Thanks for the heads up. No 9mm left at Hammond around 5 when I was there. A lot of 20 round boxes of 556 left. Only two bulk boxes left.

If 200 rounds satisfies a need, you're doing it wrong.

And before you start raging about capitalism, I agree with you. If you want to overpay for ammo and then flex about overpaying for ammo, I won't stop you.
