    Walmart .45 price increase?

    Just went by my local Walmart on Murphy Canyone Rd. in San Diego and noticed the .45 ammo now costs $18.97 a box. Has anyone else seen this yet?

      .44 Mag up to nearly 38/box. I'm now reloading these. I can't afford to shoot these large calibers without the cost savings of reloading.

        In the last month the Federal .45ACP has gone from $15.97 to $17.97 to $18.97. I wonder if they're done now or if it will keep going up?

          It will keep going. If it's not the uncertain political climate then it's just plain old inflation.

          Haven't you noticed that everything else you buy has been going up too? Food and gas certainly have. You'll never see $3 gas again, and after next year you'll be happy if it stays at $4 for a while.

              It's inflation , I remember when I was a kid a combo meal at McDonalds was $3.75 and now they are about $6.75! With out talking politics thats what happens when we weaken the value of our dollar.

                Just bought two 100 round bulk packs of 9mm - up $2.50/box at my local Walmart.

                As a side note, one of the boxes opened up in the trunk on my way home. I had to take everything out of the trunk (including the liner and spare tire) to find every round. Plus, I got to count all of the rounds I had collected 2 or 3 times to make sure I'd found them all. Amazing how they managed to roll down into so many nooks and crannies. Not how I expected to spend 45 minutes last night.

                  I remember that... $3.25 for a big mac, fries, and coke. $20.00 for a full tank of gas. I miss those days...

                    Everything went up 1-2$

They live for the opportunity to be called to duty to protect the innocent. The sheepdog has fangs and the propensity for violence but hopes that he will not have to resort to it. However, he lives for that day when he will be able to use his warrior skills and mindset to keep the wolf from harming the sheep."

                        I take it they don't do a lot of ROLLBACKS on ammo...

                          Federal ammo at Walmart "was" cheaper than the Winchester ammo there. Now it looks like WWB value packs is the cheap stuff on the Wally shelf. Federal ammo prices defiantly bumped up a bit.....

                            $18.97? I just got Federal last month and thought it was $16.95 a box if I remember.

                              At that price a simple reload press will save you alot of money in no time at all.
