[Cuyler]

Cabelas has FREE shipping again : code 6winter

Where and when did you see that code? I guess I must have been sleeping and missed that one.

Holiday Flyer that came in mail, good till Dec. 3rd

Maybe only for cabelas credit card holders? Got my free shipping on small order of ammo.

Put it in on an order and see what it does when you apply it.

You must be a snowflake.

6thanks still works too. But need $99 or more.

Yep, I knew about the "6THANKS" code cause I've already used it, but was unaware of the "6WINTER" code.
Edit: Hello, I feel really dumb now. The "6WINTER" code is posted on the Slickguns site.

I just came from Cabela's again this morning. They had Fiocchi 115 Gr. FMJ 9 MM for just $9.99 a box with no limit. People were carrying cases of the stuff to the registers. I only bought 6 boxes, but I had another $10.00 off coupon that really made it a good buy. Ammo is definitely coming down in price, and the availability is going way up.

Dicks black Friday ad said 2 box limit but they had plenty on hand so they gave us six boxes each.
24 boxes was $456 with tax out the door and they were packed with customers.

salin as dicks was stacked with auto match as well as the cheap remington 9mm. i went with daughter and son in law and they didnt need 22 so i let a buddy have 6 of the 12 they got me so buddy and i each got 12 boxes.

The limit is 6 per customer as per the ad, not 2. It's 2 for $35, meaning you can't buy 1 for $17.50, you need to buy in sets of 2.

I scored 36 boxes total from Dublin 6:50PM, Hayward 8:05PM and Fremont 9:10PM. Hayward sold out right after us, and I read in another thread Dublin sold out at 8:30PM.

Looks like a lot of the online shops are lifting their limits (Cabelas, Gander, etc.). I ordered 50 of the plastic mini sleeves (50 round sleeves) of CCI SV, $3.99 per sleeve, free shipping, no tax. I was done buying 22LR, but saw the deal and couldn't help myself. Dollar cost averaged down my CCI SV a little, and since it's my target practice ammo, I'll use it no matter what anyway.

I don't see the appeal of online shops for ammo, it's always more expensive than what I am able to get from Dick's store when it's on sale, and by always I mean 0.5-3 cents cheaper.
I did see some Fed 22 deals posted here for $20 per box, but there was a limit of like 2, sheesh, no thanks. Plus, because it's heavy, and it's shipped, it's likely to get thrown hard a lot, thus you'll get a lot of duds because the primer separated from the rim.

Is this theory or from experience? I've never had an issue, and can't remember the last time I've experienced a failure to fire. I only see plinking ammo at Dicks; I did see some Eley Club once, but that seems rare, otherwise it seems like they top out with MiniMags at best.

The Bucket-o-bullets had 3-8% FTF rate, also the casing would get stuck in the barrel, just horrible... Shouldn't have bought it for $100.

That's not ammo, that's a novelty. I got a bucket online last year for $79, free shipping, no tax. I didn't get it to shoot though. Maybe some day if I'm really desparate.
