Ammo bonanza

As I was leaving my LGS today I noticed a big box of ammo near the door marked $5.00 per box. I came away with 3 boxes of .280 Remington Corelokts (2 150 gr, 1 140 gr) and a box of the same in .35 Whelen 250 gr. As I set them aside I noticed 2 boxes of Winchester .38 Super 130 gr. ball at $15 each on the shelf above. $50 OTD for ammo that would have cost $218 plus shipping from Midway.

They had purchased the inventory of a shop that closed and were liquidating everything but the guns at fire sale prices. Almost made me wish I owned a .222, .378 Weatherby or .264 Win Mag.
