No more Winchester 5.56 at my Walmart

That would be the Pasadena Walmart at Beltway 8 and Fairmont Parkway.

The ammo case was looking a little bare today, and I saw that there wasn't ant Winchester Q3131A1 on the shelf. When I asked the guy in the department about it, he said, "We won't be handling that any more. It's a shame, we had a good price on it, too!"
No kidding! That was my primary source of reliable, reasonably-priced 5.56mm!

Does anybody know if other Walmarts still carry Q3131A1? Hopefully all of them won't stop carrying the stuff.

I thought I read something recently about Winchester having a big recall on 223/5.56

They did on their 62 gr Law Enforcement load. The 55 gr WWB load the OP is looking for wasn't affected by that recall that I know of.
