Walmart no longer sells 357mm ammo :)

[MarkWood]

I avoid Walmart any chance I get. It seems that place brings out the worst of the worst people out there

I completely agree. I'm much more inclined to support small local stores than this huge warehouse of who knows what.

Probably a contrary thought-- but sometimes I wonder if things might not be better if stores only sold components-- no factory ammo for any civilians. I have more confidence in the people that can make their own ammo. Even more so if stores sold brass primers lead and powder but no bullets.

how many grain slugs are in that 357mm ammo?

Well, a 14" gun on a US WW1 standard battleship is 356mm. A Mk16 AP round weighs in at 1500lb, to that is about 10,500,000 grains.

* to anyone who took this almost seriously it’s a gag meme from fb.

I’m in the blue state of ct and they still stock ammo here. It’s just behind a locked glass cabinet and you have to find someone to unlock it for you and you pay for it right there in the store.

Walmart most certainly does not sell pistol ammo anymore. Or "assault rifle" ammo. Which means they won't sell .223 or 7.62x39, but will happily sell me .308 for my AR-10. Morons.

It's been that way since 2019...

https://www.cnn.com/2019/09/03/busin...les/index.html

The company, America’s largest retailer, said it will stop selling handgun ammunition and “short-barrel rifle ammunition,” such as the .223 caliber and 5.56 caliber, that can also be used on assault-style weapons after selling all of its current inventory. Walmart (WMT) will also stop selling handguns in Alaska, the only state where it still sells handguns. And Walmart (WMT) will request that customers no longer openly carry guns into its 4,700 US stores, or its Sam’s Club stores, in states that allow open carry.

“It’s clear to us that the status quo is unacceptable,” Walmart CEO Doug McMillon said in a memo to employees on Tuesday.

No use for Wal Mart haven’t been in one for years,not my idea of a ‘shopping’ experience of 90% Chi Comm made products.

Well, the nearest Walmart to you is 37 miles away in Sheridan, so not too surprising. My nearest Walmart is 15 miles away since I live in a town of 1200 with one little grocery store, one bar, and no hardware stores.

I hate what Walmart did to American small businesses. I remember when they started exploding in the 90's, their slogan was that they were all for American-made products. Today, the actual numbers are around 70-80% Chinese-made goods.

There is nothing you nor I can do about it. We are on a collision course with reality and facts.

[GregLaROCHE]

Wait until the Chinese start flooding the markets with there guns, or have they already started ?

Well, that would be fun for new shooters. And the death of the 2A. But hey....

There's a Rural King across the street from Walmart. They sell everything firearm wise, great selection, decent prices. I think they upped their game when Walmart turned goofy. Currently, Walmart has about four long guns that nobody would want and about as many boxes of ammo. The irritating thing about Rural King is on truck days, you can't get into the gun department because the aisles are all blocked by pallets of ammunition. Not my usual haunts but I do check out their ammo inventory once a week.

[higgins]

Remember that sign the next time the person behind the counter at Walmart tells you some ridiculous rumor and you're tempted to believe it.

[elmacgyver0]

I quit buying ammo at Walmart when they moved all the ammo behind the counter, and I couldn't see to read the boxes and prices.

[johnsonian09]

I stand corrected, my local Walmart only stocks shotgun and various rimfire products.

Either way, I think that component idea would be terrible. Simply due to shooters too green to know better blowing their own hands off with their edc gun, when they need it to work the most.

We love reloading and tinkering. That’s not true for everyone with a gun tho. Some people just want to carry factory and shoot factory. They don’t want to absorb the risk of their own handloads failing them.

The main reason I go to WW is for beer, as it is $4 to $5 per case cheaper than anywhere else in town.
So depending on what else I'm doing, or how big of a hurry I'm in, I will about 90% of the time cruz the sporting goods section.
