Seriously, I've burned through a lot of ammo in the past month, and
haven't done any serious reordering.

The three brands of .223 plinking ammo on the right are pretty much the
same in terms of proper cycling and target results. The Wolf Gold in the
middle is .27-.28 a round, the least expensive. As far as I can tell, it
shoots the same as the slightly more expensive American Eagle on the right.

I'm trying out the CCI "Quiet" in the middle, on top of the Mini Mags,
in my "silenced" .22LR semi-auto rifle. It's a pretty weak round and
I've had a few cycling failures with it, but not many. I'll see how it
works in my semi-auto pistol, once I get the barrel back. The little red
doohickey on top of the CCI boxes is a thumb loading assist device for
the Ruger mags.

I'm down to my last box of .38 Specials. Not sure I am going to order
any more. That's a speedloader on top of the PMC ammo boxes...with six
rounds of Honady Critical Defense ammo in .357 MAG. It's a good
anti-zombie round.

Sounds like a hobby you enjoy!

Wal Marts sells .38 Specials at a good price. There's one over near you.

According to a neighbor who buys ammo at Walmart, he's paying a lot more
than I do from mail order sources, even when you roll in shipping. I
believe I paid $13 a box for 50 rounds of .38 Special the last time I
bought some. Neighbor bought .223 Federals at Walmart, paid nearly .50 a
round. They are about .30 a round mail order. Best of all, you don't
have to deal with Walmart.

Wal Mart sells .223 from various makers at various prices, just as do the internet folks. I've yet
to see *anything* on the internet cheaper than the same stuff at Wal Mart, especially if shipping is
additional.

Walmart overcharges for decent, brass casing, non-metallic .223 ammo.
My neighbor says the only time he sees that sort of ammo at Walmart, its
the Federal, at $59 for 120 rounds. That's about $20 more than the big
mail order suppliers, many of whom charge the actual UPS charges for
shipping and don't rip you off.

I don't use the cheap, ferrous Russian .223 ammo Walmart usually has. I
also don't use the Remington "El Cheapo" .22LR ammo Walmart sometimes
has, or the standard quality .357 MAG ammo Walmart almost never has.

How do I know what Walmart has in stock?

There's an app for that.

Dunno, I see some pretty good ammo prices online and they seem to have
most stuff in stock these days.


Oh, I'm sure there are more choices online than at Wal Mart, but Wal Mart, at least here, has much
more of a selection than Krause suggests. And, that's especially true of .223. Seems like that's all
they have sometimes.
