Anyone else see the Dick's Sporting Goods ad this morning?

Holy jeebus!

Remington UMC 9mm is up to $11.98 per box ON SALE and ONLY IF YOU BUY THE CASE! Just a couple months ago this was $7.98 and then $8.98.

That's a robbery in progress! I hope no one buys it.

 

[trophygrl]

price seems to be climbing everywhere.

 

[dixidawg]

Unless you buy a case and they only charge you for a box

 

[jar]

Has walmart's price changed? Last time I bought WWB it was $20/100, and it's better ammo than UMC.

Sadly, people do...Not many places to buy bulk 9mm, (I buy my 9mm at Walmart) and local fun shops are charging $15.99 for a 50rd box of WWB, (of course they're not overpricing their ammo for any panic buyers - silly to think that [/sarcasm]). The .40 is up to $18.98....

wow. all done with dicks, its all walmart WWB now

 

[Squished]

I agree, all WWB from wally world now. Anyone know if wally world is still 14.98 for WWB .40 right now? I need to start stocking up....this is getting ridiculous.


Reloading is looking better and better.

 

[Jamie]

Ladies and Gents, start reloading. You don't really save any money in the long run, you just get to shoot a heck of a lot more for the same dough.

 

[ateamrob]

they know they can get away with it because we will buy it.

not when its 20 per 100 at walmart

 

[copterdoctor]

Hard Jeep is right. Get into reloading. You wind up spending the same amount of money as buying factory ammo, but have a lot more ammo available. I haven't bought anything other than 22LR in years. At present useage, I have enough to last until we have a new government in 2012.

good point

 

[drgrant]

And if dick's has just raised their prices I'm sure tramlaw isn't going to be very
far behind.

We buy are ammo at walmart and get the UMC remington in 9MM and the .38 special is just too much that I really don't shoot it that much anymore

 

[squirt]

Thank God for this site. . I won't be buying ammo at M & M anymore after seeing Walmarts prices.

 

[wolf223]

WTF?

Remington UMC Ammo
UMC 9mm 11.98
UMC .45 ACP or .40 S&W 17.98


being a dumbass, i didn't buy up a case of .45 when I got the case of .40



I'll be sure to stock up IF it comes down to $14.99 (case price) again.

 

[Og Killah]

What Walmarts sell ammo? All the local ones to me say they don't. I'd love to be able to get ammo the days the gun store local to me is closed. I just paid $37 for a 100 round box of .45 ACP target ammo at 4 Seasons last week. The store local to me went up to $18.95 for .40 target ammo 50 rounds. I remember a couple years ago is was $11.95 a 50 round box.

Go up to NH... I haven't seen any walmarts in NH that didn't sell ammo.

Even going outside of the 128 loop in MA may yield more stores that sell ammo.

Danvers, MA wally world sells ammo.

Ammo prices going up NOW is ridiculous.
For the past two+ years they have been saying it is because the metal prices have been increasing. Now that the economy has tanked and metal prices are down the ammo should be going down as well.

Double whammy since I have been saving up scrap copper and the price went from 3+ $$$ per pound to 1.50.

Its the Obama price that is increasing now.

Same here. I've been reloading since the mid 80's, now I'm up to 18 different calibers. The only factory ammo I have on hand is for my carry pieces.

 

[Titan]

I wouldn't be surprised to see federal taxes on ammo AND reloading supplies in our relatively near term future.

 

[Squished]

For you guys that reload, have you been noticing the price of bullets going up at all?

 

[squirt]

Danvers, MA wally world sells ammo.

Also Plymouth and Wareham Wallys sells ammo as well. . .

 

[Len-2A Training]

And as has been posted here many times before . . . Bellingham, Walpole and N. Attleboro Wal-Marts also sell ammo. What is in stock at any store at a given moment will vary wildly depending on all the panic buying going on.
