Pay attention to the ammo you buy.

For those not familiar, at these stores you take the ammo off the shelf yourself and take it up to the registers. A novel concept. Barring oddities like a total misboxing of the ammo, the onus is also up on you.

True, and that's the way I like it.

I did have a cashier at Sportsman's Warehouse open a 1000rnd case of 7.62x39 that I was buying. Ruined a perfectly good sealed case so she could count the boxes individually. The contents were printed on the side of the case!!! It was closing time and it was the last case so "que sera sera"

Yes that can and will happen. I have had to correct sales clerks before when they handed me the wrong box of ammo. Most often they didn't know the first thing about firearms or ammunition. You are speaking a different language and many people don't understand!! Watch them, read the box, check the headstamp don't assume anything it's your saftey.
