6 Month Ammo Wait Finally Over - The Firearms Forum

NonPCnraRN · 02-16-2010, 07:11 PM

I ordered 300 rds of WWB 230 gr 45 ACP that came in a Cabelas ammo box 6 months ago. It arrived today. I posted this because it must mean they have WWB in stock so if you need some you might give them a call. When I bought it, it was on sale and was $139.00 + shipping = $154.94 for 300 rds. That comes to just under 52 cents a round. I guess that is not a bad price since I can't find any where I live unless I pay over 80 cents a round not including 8.25 % sales tax for Federal 230 gr ball at the local gun shop. With tax it would have been $259.80 for 300 rounds. I don't mind supporting the local guy but not getting hosed to the tune of $100 more for 300 rounds. If you order some hopefully you won't have to wait 6 months.

Glad to hear of your good fortune . The down side on this, A couple days ago. Guys on another form were talking about, I believe it was Mid-Way had primers in stock. And with in one hour of the post. They were posting. Mid-way was out again. I have an order in to Mid-South shooter. Coming up on 9 months. So I don’t think the shortage is over. I checked my order. The powder and LR, SR, and SP were in. waiting on LP primers.

I've been buying from these guys. The stuff is in stock and the price is pretty good:
