    You aren't running 10+1 on your first mag, are you?

        I've had it happen a few times over the years. Once it was PMC and the others I don't remember.

            I went straight to the range after going to WM, so Its either someone from Wal-Mart stealing them, or a problem on Winchesters part.

            But anyway the first trip to Wal Mart I bought winchester white box I got 99 rounds, and yesterday I bought two boxes and same thing happened, both boxes were only filled 99 rounds. Its not just a bad batch of WWB that Wal-Mart has because in between my first and last trip they were out of 9mm WWB and their restocked new batch of White Boxes still has 1 missing round. So this problem is still persistent.

            99/100 rounds on 3 WWB in a row but on different trips.

              I am confused because I bought the same WWB and loaded my 33 round mags evenly and always wind up with an extra round... LOL just kidding.

                Dont worry, your 3 bullets are probably being used in the commission of an assassination, they will be able to trace the lot number of said bullets, back to the lots you bought.

                  Sounds like a Winchester problem seeing as the boxes are factory sealed. Now if they were taped shut or had purple glue stick on them...

                    I've had as many as three left over after loading up magazines, but it's often not an exact 100 per box. I have about a dozen boxes in the cabinet, so I might count one to 100 and weigh it to compare with the others.

                      I've bought 3 boxes and had the same problem with the white box 100 pack from Walmart. One of my co-workers also had this happen. Winchester's trying to pull a fast one!

                        Why don't y'all compare lot numbers on the boxes, and see if it's an isolated thing or if it's happening across a broad range of lots?

                            Send me your address and I'll send you a dozen rounds and a tissue.
                            If it'll make you feel better.....I bought a CASE of "John Wayne" commemorative 32/40 cartridges, that's 20 boxes of 20 and every box only had 19 rounds. This was a sealed case. Don't feel like the Lone Ranger.

                                If you are mad, imagine how pissed i was when i bought 200 rounds of 30-06 only to get home and open the carton and find out one box of 20 was gone! ugh.
