Ammo showing up on shelves.

[WSmith]

Just bought a 100 round box of 9mm 115 gr. for 20 bucks. Seeing alot more 38 special too. Southeast mi.

 

[mkk41]

Yeah , I'm seeing ammo , but usually only premium hunting or carry ammo at $1 a round , or FMJ ball-type at $0.50 a round.

 

[BullShooter]

Went to my local Gander Mountain last Friday. The shelves were stocked full of Pistol Ammo in all Flavors and Calibers.
The Wal Mart near me also had a good supply.
Could it be, the glut is over?

 

[exfebee]

No Wal-Mart in Lake City, Fla had plenty of shotgun ammo, but shelves were pretty much empty of handgun stuff last Friday.

 

[Spotteddog]

North of Seattle (9-18) lots of 12 gauge, 20, .410 field loadings, no Buck. Spotty for hunting rifle loads. Strangely the ONLY box of Winchester White box, was a box of 22/250 rifle stuff? Absolutely ZERO of any loading in any caliber of handgun stuff. This has been a constant pattern here, for 13 months now.

 

[holo]

wal-marts here in ohio are good for a few boxes each week of different cal. but they dont last long and you have to be prettty lucky to score there. but i have had much better luck at dicks sporting goods around town.

 

[another41]

I still need a detective to find 22's.

I did get a 100value pak($38.97) and 2 boxes of 50 @ $18.97 at Walmart today in 45Auto

 

[ladder13]

Gander Mountain has always had ammo, and at the prices they charge, always will.

 

[BullShooter]

+1 on Gander Mountain Ammo prices. They are high but still cheaper then the Mom and Pop Gun Stores around here.
I go to GM every weekend with one of my Compound Bows and spend a hour in the Archery Range. I like a 70lb draw and need to stay in shape for it. I look at the Ammo supply every time I go. Last weekend was the first time in about 6 months the shevles were completely stocked full.

 

[jframe]

Can't find nothing in .38/.357 at Wal Mart around here. Pawn stores have it, for around 22.00 for fifty .38's, and 29.00 for the same amount of .357's. To me, these prices are absolutely ridiculous. I think the election fear and scare is over now; now they are just slipping it to everybody on the prices. As long as people keep freaking out and paying it, they'll keep doing it. I'm at a bare minimum in ammo, so I just don't shoot much anymore. I just refuse to give in to these prices. Sure would hate to be driven from this hobby because of crazy crap like this.

 

[raincitywheel]

We are Rving around the country. I've seen plenty of ammo in VT, PA, WI, MN, IA and MO.

Prices are up. 9mm that used to sell for $9-10 a box is now $13-16. 38 Special $12-16 dollar a box ammo is now $17-21.

22lr is off the charts. $10 bricks of bulk pack crap are now going for $20 to $30 dollars.

Ammo is out there. CHEAP ammo is still scarce.

 

[vytoland]

no ammo on the south side of chicago.

the limited amount of stuff that is on the shelves cost twice as much as what i paid for it last year.

 

[Smilin-buddha]

Got two boxes of 38 at Gander and 500 rounds of 22.
Hit the local Walmart early have scored some 38

 

[kkramer673]

In Northern New England, it's nearly impossible to find any .38 Special ammo for plinking. And most Online suppliers seem to be out, also.

 

[Jack Flash]

Just got back from WalMart. They had 10 boxes of .40 S&W priced at $29.99 / 100 rounds (Winchester White Box.) Seems like a reasonable enough price, but I don't know what it was selling for before the new President took office. I don't shoot the stuff, so they still had all ten boxes when I left.

 

[Beejabbers]

Here in the Triad area of NC area, the supply of most calibers is beginning to rebound, in my opinion. Please underline beginning to. There seems to be a good supply of 40S&W and 223. Some area retailers are even trying to hold prices down.

 

[BSkerj]

Here in Idaho the supplies are coming back, but I think it is going to be shortlived. Most of the country is in the midst of hunting season. I am of the mind that the commercial companies are pumping out more ammo to help their bottom line due to the season, which I can't blame them. I have a feeling that come Dec. we will be back again to the shortage. Hope I am wrong. Luckily I reload and cast my own and have alot of components and lead on hand.

 

[Spotteddog]

It's an opinion (and as I well know, everybody has one of the "other" things too!) But because we're discussing an item that heavily uses commodities, as well as labor to produce, along with transportation to get it into our hot sweaty little hands, I'm wondering? Are we not seeing just a bit earlier than other niche' markets, the true effects of printing dollars 24/7 to the tune of how many decimal places?
Just a thought...

 

[500 Magnum Nut]

Wait, now the Californians are starting to stock pile. No ammo for 1 year....

 

[Smokester653]

Plenty of ammo on the shelves in my area now. Wal-Mart, Dicks Sporting Goods and Bass Pro are well stocked. I guess the "big panic" that the sky was falling and the black helicopters were coming is starting to wear off. The only calibers that are scarce are 38/357. The sales in my area are pretty much back to what they were pre-panic days. It is funny however that the local gun store/range has piles of ammo at ridiculous prices that is not selling (same guy that had his employees cleaning the ammo shelves for resell).

 

[Joker84]

I wish ammo would start showing up here in memphis. I went to walmart, bass pro, and a classic arms today for some 9mm and walmart was out, bass pro only had the 100 round boxes, and the gun shop wanted 18 bucks for reloads of 50 which is all they had. Here I just bought this handgun and I cant even find any ammo to shoot it. Maybe I should just practice throwing it at the targets...or trade it in for a .22

 

[Deputy]

No ammo at Wallyworld except for oddball rifle ammo. Same for K-Mart. Some online sources are starting to get their inventory back up. Dpends on what caliber and what kind of ammo you want.

 

[Class III]

No 32 ACP, 380 ACP, 38 Spcl (standard pressure), 357 Mag, 357 Sig, 40 S&W, 45 ACP, 45 Colt at BPS in Memphis yesterday. Wally World in Oakland, TN had it all except 32 ACP. Just and update. BPS did have 38 +P. Not much in rifle cals.

Class III

 

[EODJames]

North Alabama is still pretty dry (except the high priced Gander Mtn). There was very little (handgun ammo) even at a recent gun show in Florence, Alabama. Wish the shortage would end soon -- I'm getting the DTs!!!!!!!

 

[Checkman]

I've had no trouble getting 38 special from the Cabela catalog. The item is in the printed catalog but not listed on the website. However if you type in the inventory or item number it shows up on the website. I order it on the website and have it delivered to the Boise store so I don't have to pay shipping.

However pickings are still pretty slim if you're shopping the shelves.

 

[dondavis3]

In the Dallas / fort Worth area I'm finding more & more ammo.

You have to look, but it's getting better.

 

[eflact]

Wallmart today

Just purchased 3 50 round boxes of Fed champ in 9mm for$9.xx and Fed Camp 1n 40 S&W for $15.xx.

 

[REDTAIL]

Not here in NYS my wal-mart shelves are dry of any kind of ammo for month's & the Mgr. there says there is no sign of re stocking any time soon, looks likw WM sporting goods dept is on its way out, to bad it use to be a great place for sports men to shop, now I go to Gander MT who has ammo & what ever else you need.

 

[mhg2tld]

I have been looking lately for some 44 specials and founds one box of Gold Dot for $30 for 20 rounds. To pricey for me. Found some 44 mag at Walmart. Starting to see more ammo on the internet and the price seems to be getting a little better, but local prices are still way too high in AL. I can't remember the last time I saw some 357's in a store.

 

[BarbC]

I spoke to one of the managers at our local WalMart, through whom I used to special order defense ammo, about why there's limited handgun ammo in our WalMart. He said that he can't even order it directly anymore. It all has to go through corporate and he has to take whatever they send him, which is very little in the way of handgun ammo. He'll get a box or two in and it's gone right away.
