Is 15.87 for 100 rds of WWB ammo a good price?

[h0ss]

probably the best you'll find. Wal-Mart, right?

[elderboy02]

Ummmm..... what caliber?

[Arkie]

Probably 9mm

Walmart's price for .45 is $32 and some change.

[Dravur]

9mm, yes. I stocked up a couple years ago on ammo and still have a ton, but I saw 50rd boxes of WWB for 14.97 and 100 for 15.87 and I thought that had to be a good price.

[elderboy02]

Yeah, its a good price.

[h0ss]

I hadnt even noticed he didn't list the caliber. But i saw "100 rds of WWB" and the price and just assumed it was 9mm.

[Old Guy]

First answer the Q, yes good price.

Second, in firing thousands of rounds of this 9mm ammunition over the last 4years, one misfire. One box of 100 rounds, plus $10.00 match fee, a couple of gallons of gas... half a day of fun at the range, for under $35.00.

Do we have a great sport in IDPA in central Florida, or what?

Same price as at my local WalMart yestiday (9mm FMJ)...and yes, it's a good price and is decent ammo. I've fired many thousands of WWB rounds in a variety of pistol calibers for several years. I've occasionally found an imperfect round (bullet setback, smeared brass case). No misfires.

What's scary is that $15+ for a 100 rd value pack is considered a good deal today.

Two years ago, it could be found on the shelves for $9+ per box.

Over 50% price increase in 24 months.

I shoot WWB out of my guns all the time, just had not bought any in a few years. Back when Gart Sports was around in Denver, they had a sale where the WWB was $3.88 a box. I cleaned out a few stores and almost had my pickup bed dragging on the ground.

I still have a few K rounds, but I thought Id start stocking up again if I saw it at a good price. Went back and bought 20 more boxes.

I also went to Sportsman's and bought a set of 9mm dies. Gonna start reloading it if it is this expensive.
