CCI MiniMag 1600 Cans

[MartMayhem86]

I was at Wal-Mart today picking up a prescription and while I was waiting I detoured over to the ammo/guns and such and looked around. On the counter they had about 20 plastic boxes of CCI MiniMag bulk. Each can held 1600 rounds and was priced at $98.99.

I asked the worked behind the counter when he got these in and he said a few days ago and that all Wal-Marts are going to start carrying tins/cans/boxes to compete with Dicks Sporting Goods and Cabelas in terms of ammo sales. Thought it was pretty cool since I've never seen them in bulk like that before, he said they were new... just an FYI.

nice, not a bad price for mini mags.

They're selling them at Academy now as well. At first I thought it was a good deal until I did the math. Comes out to 6.24 =100rds. Regular 100rds boxes are only 6.67. For me it's worth
. 40 to reuse the CCI boxes for my Wolf and Eley ammo. They have the worst design ammo boxes ever.

These ammo cans contain 16 of the 100 round plastic cases that you buy off the shelve.

Then that would be cool. I believe the Academy bulk was loose pack. But I'll certainly double check it next time I'm there.
I can't support Wally World. Employees and the entire entity rub me the wrong way. I'm willing to pay a little more for knowledge and customer service.

Thanks to the op. That is good information.

Cool, I will keep my eyes open.

Cool sadly my Wally world never ever has anything good in stock ever.

It also comes in a plastic ammo box mil style. All 16 boxes of the 50 round cci fit inside nice. Box probaly cost $10 or more.

I reuse the mini-mag plastic 100 round boxes all the time. They are a great tool at the range. Need 10 rounds - 2 clicks.
Need 20 rounds - 4 clicks, etc...

I fill out labels telling what's in the box.

When I have a used up box. I spray it with WD40 and let it sit over night. The CCI labels come right off.

Easy to carry. Easy too know how much ammo you took/fired. Also easy to know how much you have.

I have ~ 30 empties right now! About time to buy a case!

I keep my subsonic, tracers, and match rounds in the 50 round CCI plastic boxes.

Kinda like the old jelly glass jar! Just keep using them.

That's interesting. I've been buying CCI Standard Velocity at Dicks Sporting Goods for a long time but they haven't had the 500rd $25 boxes for a few weeks.

 

[tacticool22]

Great info. And you get the nice reusable box.
Sales tax??? Yuck.

 

[Noahsdad]

Yep guess I never really thought of them that way. CCI ammo boxes are the old school baby food jars of the rimfire loonies world.

I remember 35 cents/box of 50.

I wish it was still that cheap! When was that? Back in the 50's or 60's?

Yup. Way back in the "dark ages".

I remember when the CMP program was selling a brick of 500 Remington for 5.00. I believe that was in the early 90s
Unfortunately if my memory servs me right that stuff had primers that were not always dependable

Couldn't find bulk CCI MiniMags at Walmart or Academy. Luckily, I live near Palmetto State Armory but they didn't have any either.
