Alright, so I went in to "Panic buy" some .45 and .40 ammo as everywhere I look it seems to be doubling in price in just a few short weeks time!! Tonight at the Wal-Mart at Rufe Snow and 820 I found the following prices.

WWB .45 100rnd-----$28.98
Rem. MegaPack .45 250rnd-----(sold out) but normally $72.88
Rem. JHP .45 100rnd------$32.88

WWB .40 100rnd-----$21.88
Rem. MegaPack .40 250rnd-----$59.88

Rem. FMJ 38spcl+p 100rnd----$25.88

Blazer Brass .45 50rnd----$14.88 (this is almost double what it was just before Christmas )
Rem. .45 50rnd----$16.88

7.62x39 WWB 40rnd "Bonus Pack"-----$24.47

Winchester 12ga 2 3/4 15pk 00Buckshot-----$7.22
Wincehster 12ga 2 3/4 15pk 1oz. Slug-----$7.87

I dont have a 9mm so I didnt really look. The only reason I put the 7.62x39 is because I am contemplating the idea of adding an AK to my battle pack in the next few weeks. They didnt have any "bonus pack" .223 boxes, but most of their .223 was sold out to say the least.

I was in Cabela's just a little while ago checking out ammo prices and other stuff and found that their WWB .45 went from a previous $33.00 for 100rnd box to $41.00 I was in austruck when I saw that, I havent been to the walmart that I normally buy my ammo at, but they had the same 100rn WWB for $28.98 just before Christmas, I am almost scared to go back as im sure it has gone up as well. I was going to buy a 250 rnd Rem. bulk pack that they had which was going for $72.00 just before Christmas, scared to see what it is now. As soon as I get my bonus money in I am going out to invest in stocking up on as much ammo as I can afford at once, I never thought the prices would rise so sharply so quickly, good ole govt. trying their dangdest to make sure all us gun owners have it tough!! Hope this isnt the first step in making ammo to expensive and in turn making firearm owning to cost prohibitive!!
