This morning, I was at Gander Mountain in Greensburg shopping for a BB gun for my son. I am shooting some .223 and .30-30 on Saturday, so I thought I would pick up an extra box of each. Remington Core Lokt 150 Gr .30-30 cartridges were going for $18.99 per box of 20. Remington UMC .223 55gr MC were going for $32.99 per box of 50.

Because I did not really need ammo, I decided not to buy.

My travels took me to Dicks. the wife wants an elliptical machine. Don't ask what that is all about. Damn thing costs as much as a good AR. Anyhow, I walk through their ammo and see the same boxes of .30-30 and .223 for $12.99 and $23.99. I didn't even think that those prices were that great, but I bought them anyway.

Now I usually buy all my ammo online, but for you guys that shop the stores, watch those prices at Gander Mountain.

And the Guns....a $1400 M1A for $1800. Enough said.
