Well, let me say that I can't find the .45 winchester or federal ammo at any wally world here in San Antonio. I was wondering is this just my problem or is everyone else have ammo shortage?
If you come to Austin, I have some .40 and .45 listed in the
Market. Way below Walmart price. :)

Academy in SA had plenty of ammo. I bought the WWB 100's of 9mm for just .47 more than WallyWorld ( I do in fact go out of my way to avoid WallyWorld ).
My brother said Academy was low on .45 ammo, but that's his problem.

I looked in the Bluff store yesterday and was suprised how low they were on WWB in general, as well as the fact that they didn't have any 100 round boxes of Federal 9mm. That store normally stays stocked. I think the big problem is that since they enlarged, they gave Automotive and SPorting goods and I believe toys to one manager. He's spread too thin. Everyone I talk to at that store says they are overwhelmed.
You willingly visit a WalMart in the Bluff? WalMart is bad enough, but adding the dynamic of the Bluff makes it a special treat!

Oddly enough I actually found the 40 S&W 250 count box I was looking for at Walmart this past Sunday

Check out the new Academy on BW8 and Fairmont Parkway. I couldn't find it at my usually spots around Clear Lake and thought I was going to have to go to Carters to pick some up before I went hunting at the end of January. I stopped in that Academy and they had a shelf full of it. They still had some when I was in there about a week ago.
Other than that, you're right. 308's must have been popular this XMAS, because I haven't seen 308 since then.

yeah, I looked there and keep asking about .223, but they always say "2 weeks"... 2 weeks later they say "2 weeks"

. i might just start ordering online.
