LGS Ammo Shopping

Post by Mags » Wed May 08, 2019 1:51 pm

Was out and about yesterday evening. One of the LGS was along the way so I stopped in. Ammo stock had been replenished (yay!). So I bought some, not because I needed it, but because I could. Stocked up on .30-30 Fusion, .45 Colt Cowboy and .22LR CCI MiniMag. The MiniMag I hadn't seen on the shelf in over a year. I also saw for the first time .38-55. $53/box. Only 2 boxes left. I had no need so did not buy those.

Oh and I also looked at the rack to see if they had any Henry side-gates yet. Nope. But I did see Marlins with a side-gate.

One of the WMs I occasionally go to had some 30-30 (Winchester Deer Season and Fusion) 150g for $13/box. I thought it was a decent price so I picked up a few boxes.

The strange thing is when I find the best deals at WM, they aren’t running the same deal at the others.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Maybe. Thing is I can't remember if it was a box of 20 or a box of 50. I'm thinking a box of 20 ($2.65/rn). Online the price spread is from $1.09 up to $3.25/rn.

I have never seen a box of 50 38-55. Im pretty sure it was 20. Most people that have 38-55 reload for them anyway its one of those like 41 mag. Savings are huge.
