Hoping suncat is OK. he had a toothache, tried some floss and found 100 rounds of 9mm in his mouth.
People keep asking if I'm back and I haven't really had an answer. But now, yeah, I'm thinkin' I'm back.
Oh, and met a guy who had some 9mm ammo, doesn't have a 9mm, and GAVE AWAY some boxes of 9mm last week. Had no idea what it was running these days. I told him 0.80/round and he about died.

I respect it. But I can't drive to Louisville for a good deal on 100 rounds.
now, hold me 5,000 rounds or 10K and yeah, I'll be right there. Maybe even for 1,000 I make that drive, but not 100.
And that is smart for them b/c that helps them with local traffic and loyalty, and I would only go there for a deal like this on ammo.

Oh yeah. Same. I drove 20 miles (45 round-trip, actually) just before prices really jumped when local ammo was scarce, but I stocked up (for me, not for you and Suncat) a bit, and wouldn't necessarily do it for 2 boxes. Well, probably 20 miles, if I needed it. But not if I just wanted it.
Some of the YouTubers that post on this topic live in areas where Academy stores are thicker than Walmarts are in Lexington. They are hitting four or five different stores to see what they have on ammo days. The two box limit is regardless of round count. If they have 200 count range boxes you can still buy two boxes.
Academy: I have 2 near me, used to be 3. Is there a particular day of the week or time they say is better to check? In-laws also gave me a gift card there for Christmas, so it would be free ammo for me (well, the first $100).
Ammo day seems to vary by area of the country, but all stores in an area appear to receive ammo on the same days. I’d pay a visit to one of the local stores and ask a store manager or employees in the ammo section. A lot of this ammo isn’t even shelved, it is dispensed in an area near the service desk.
I hope you have good luck. Ammo supplies seem to be increasing in spurts. I’ve even heard of people finding ammo at Rural King again. With it warming up I need to find some to shoot and maintain my stockpile, of course Suncat finds more lost ammo than I have stockpiled.
Bought 150 rounds of 223 from a buddy today.

Palmetto has steel case 223 for 70 cents a round as of a few minutes ago.
Just wanted to give you guys an update: I'm still unpacking boxes, but unfortunately I haven't found any more ammunition. Yet.
MOLON LABE!
Optics Planet notified me today that a couple hundred rounds of my Winchester 45 ammo is ready to be shipped at the original price. Wanted to know if I still wanted if.
Uhh, yes.
LOL.
Just got charged on my credit card. I think it is 42 cents a round.

I'm just one stomach flu away from my goal weight.
Scammers and thieves are awful.
I’ve seen where thieves were stealing several rounds out of individual boxes and people would get home with their purchases before discovering the theft. FedEx had issues at its Bloomington hub with ammo and firearm theft during the shipment process.
My 45 ammo comes in tomorrow...like Christmas.
Actually October 10. So it wasn't my first orders.
Fingers crossed that maybe others (9mm) may be following soon. It may just have been that they had 45 in fortuitously, but I'll take it.
