MOnster sale on ammo at Sports Authority/Oshmans! Go Now!
Get out of your chairs and get your tails to Sports Authority or Oshmans. ALL Winchester Centerfire ammo is $3 off the lowest marked price per box, no limit!
I just cleaned out the North Richland Hills store of 5.56 Q3131 for $1.99 per box and I bought a case of 240gr JSP 44mag for $12 per box of 50.
THe DFW boys are already onto this and shelves are emptying fast so move!

My closest Academy is in Temple (I'm in Waco), and I don't get the paper...
BTW: If you bought the Winchester 5.56mm (Q3131) you may want to check the rounds before feeding them through anything, out of the 200 rounds I bought I had one split neck and a handful that looked like the sealant had leaked out around the primer. They were mixed 2003-2005 production. And a quite a few with small dents but nothing major.

If you take the Sports Authority add from the Sunday paper into Academy and show them the advertised sale, Academy will match it. At least the Academy here did.Jim101 wrote:HighV,

Thanks,

50rd 9mm : $7.99-$3.00=$4.99 per box
Not that great of a deal. :(
But how is 50 rnds of 9mm @ ~ $5 a box not that great a deal???
I could understand if it were to be @ $3 to $3.50 might be better...
Since I primarily shoot .40, I think I am lucky if I can get a deal on a box of that for about $10...But if it can be had for $2-3 less than that, I'd love to know who to look for when those deals come around...
I'd like to find some .223/5.56 (because my Bushmaster can eat both without problems) by the case...I don't shoot it very much, but its nice to stockpile some of that stuff here and there...I suppose a good deal for some good .223 would be about $160 or less for a case???
I guess I have to start learning about ammo wheeling and dealing since we are shooting more...
WOOHOO!

I forget if the Winchester comes 500 rounds to a case or 1000 but:stevie_d_64 wrote: I'd like to find some .223/5.56 (because my Bushmaster can eat both without problems) by the case...I don't shoot it very much, but its nice to stockpile some of that stuff here and there...I suppose a good deal for some good .223 would be about $160 or less for a case???
25 boxes of 20 (500 rds.) @ $1.99ea. comes out to $53.85 after tax and 50 boxes (1000 rds.) comes out to $107.71 plus there's no shipping or other fees that some places charge for handling ammo.
For the .223rem/5.56mm this is probably the best deal you'll see for a while, with almost all the Mil Spec 55gr. FMJ going to Iraq right now. About the best deal you'll find online right now is the Canned Heat from Georgia Arms and that’s $160.00 for 1000 rds. Plus shipping (I think about $17.00).

It isn't that great of a deal because you can get WWB, Wolf, CCI Blazer, UMC, American Eagle, ... for that price or better all day every day. It isn't a bad price, it just isn't the smoking deal that some of the other calibers are.
