    Default Wal-Mart Ammo

    FYI, In Lebanon today .45 acp WWB was cheaper than CCI Blazer by $0.06.

    $29.88 (100) compared to $14.97 (50).

    I know most prefere the cleaner burning WWB over CCI Blazer

    The Winchester is good stuff. I've been shooting it out of my glock 17 for years. Just a short time ago it was only around $12 per 100. Prices are out of control.

    I usually shoot winchester target loads in 9 mm but they have a "dud" rate of 2-9%. Im switching to federal for target practice to see how they compare.

    2-9% ? wow i've shot 3-4,000 rounds of this and only had one without a primer installed. You've had some bad luck with almost 5-10 duds per box

    Exactly WHAT did you pay $29.88 for?




    ETA: Nevermind, I looked at my price list and see that you are talking about .45ACP, and yes, the WWB is .06¢ less for 100 rds than Blazer Brass. (EDITED:I had that backwards)

    Here's a link to my thread with current W-mart ammo pricing.
    (They may vary slightly by market)

    Yes, my mistake on which one was more. (smacks forehead)

    It's odd, because the Blazer is generally less expensive in the other calibers they carry.

    yeah, I've always had good success with WWB. Never a FTF, FTE. I've been shooting PMC lately too with no issues either.
