Wally World ammo price increase June 1st! - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

Just a heads up. I stocked up on a few calibers yesterday. I was told everything will be going up, including guns.

So if you were going to get some ammo, might prepare for a price hike.

As always this can be wrong. Worst case is you bought some more ammo.

You ain't seen nothing yet. Ammo costs ? Wait until the 20% across the board price hike of Dow Chemical kicks in .... The cost of darn near everything is going to go up!!

ugh, just bought two boxes of wwb yesterday, im stocked well enough for awhile, but with my new gun it might go quicker than i thought..

I'll probably grab another 1000 rounds of 9mm today, then.

I bought 1000 rounds of 9mm WWB yesterday. I asked the clerk and he said there is a price increase coming in june but he doesnt know by how much. Im going to start keeping my 9mm brass now.

oh this sucks. I will have to get some more this week. But wait - today is June 1st.

ForTehNguyen · 06-01-2008, 09:19 AM

winchester and remington announced all shipments june 1st and forward have their 5-10% price increase. So maybe once walmart depletes current stock they will raise the prices on the next shipment, better get it quickly

yeahYeah · 06-01-2008, 09:21 AM

there is going to be a mad rush around here.

At this point, I've about stopped caring. I can bitch and moan, but in the end I'll still pay through the nose for it because I need the ammo and it's not gonna be getting any cheaper.

I'm hoping Georgia Arms is at some of the gun shows in Florida so I can fill the trunk of the Crown Vic with some of their Canned Heat.
