Yeah that ship for reporters has already sailed. Ammo is leveling out to pre-election prices.

But availability is still severely lacking. I can't find .45 ACP anywhere in town.

When I go to look for ammo their is more in stock but prices dont seem to be going down rather up.

Yeah, it seems that Wal Mart raised the price on 45 WWB 100 rds from 29.95 to 32.95. The Wal Mart at 410 & Rigsby had 5 of them as well as 9mm and 40 when I went by yesterday.

WOW. It looks like the article has been pulled.
Wonder why that happened.
I know it has been two months since the OP but I have articles bookmarked from years back that are still there.

That is a cheap price.
In Saint Louis where I live, 50 rounds of WWB 45acp is over 21.00
SW40 is over 23.00 for 50 rounds.
Seems some of you have much better prices than we do. Wonder why.
