Ammo lock up?  None of that at my Wal-mart.  Usually the sporting goods guy/gal is only an aisle or two away.  Most of them don't even ask for my FOID anymore.  .45 ammo is cheaper (hardball anyway) there than online after shipping. But all of my 5.56 comes from online.  Last batch was $6.42 per 20 round box delivered to my door.  That's $6 before tax at a store.  i've not found it at that price at any store locally.

Local Walmart carries Tula for 4.99 a box.

So does mine.  I'm comparing brass cased ammo.  I've not ordered any steel or aluminum ammo online.

Standing here waiting for the guy with the ammo key. Man they restocked. WWB 9mm  100 for 24. 100 for 30 bucks  45 acp fed champion . UMC 250 40 sw for 82 bucks. If you have the time to wait for the guy with the ammo key and are in the area drop by. Lots of american eagle varmint tip 223 20 for 11 bucks too.

Anyways I am back home now; 9MM federal FMJ's are restocked; still a couple of WWB 100 packs in 9MM left. 2-4 250 round UMC 9mm packs.

Multiple 250 round boxes of UMC in 40 & 45; lots of assorted types for 9mm, 40 and 45.

Must have about 30 boxes of the American Eagle V-tip in 223 for $11.00 a box.
Also; I just noticed this they have a lot of real cheap-o scopes, lasers, etc.

Only handgun hollow points they seem to stock are federal "classic" (a gray and black box i've never seen before), federal hydra-shock and a VERY limited amount of Z-Max.

A small musing though.
The girl that finally came with the ammo key asked if I could pick out what I like (usually they seem to not like you touching it until you pay) because she was afraid they would "go off" something akin to cartoon nytro-glycerin.
Long story short turns out some overly cautious manager scolded some stock-clerks who were "throwing boxes around like a football" that it could just explode....I tried to educate her a little bit...I really tried but I think it was all for not.

Just an FYI the Wheeling IL Super Walmart (Lake Cook and McHenry Rd.) is now open. They have your standard WalMart Ammo selection and have lots of pistol ammo in stock in 380, 9MM , 40, 45 and 357. Rifle ammo is very hit or miss however, almost all of the 223 was sold out.

9mm and 40 ammo prices were OK @ $13.00 for 50 of 9MM and $17.00 for 50 of 40 S&W.
45 ammo price is good @ $19.00 per 50 of federal FMJ's and $30.00 for 100.

Too bad for me I am way overstocked on 45 right now .

There is no such thing as being overstocked on ammo but if you do not want any more 45 ammo for yorself simply buy it for christmas presents for your family and friends.

This is the Walmart I was talking about.

Could I have the address including the city and zip code.
