Best current ammo deals? 9/25/11

I've shopped online, looking and looking, and I cannot find a better price for Winchester white box .45ACP FMJ (aka practice ammo) than Walmart. I've read comments here and there hinting that Winchester and Federal both sell a lower grade product to Walmart, but frankly, I can't imagine those companies putting their brands at risk by selling a lesser product under their own names. Yeah, if it were sold under a Walmart house brand or no name, maybe.

Anyway, I pay $31.99 for a box of 100 WWB .45acp FMJ at my local Walmart, and I can't even come close to that online so far. Does anyone (1) have any evidence other than heresay that Walmart is selling "sweepings" or factory seconds??? and (2) a better price for .45 ammo than Walmart's? It is pretty expensive to practice with a 45...of course not practicing could be more expensive.

BTW, it is expensive, but it sure is fun to shoot those big bullets.

That price for .45 100WWB will be hard to beat.
My local Walmart never has it in stock ..

I see you're in Houston. I buy it at Walmart on Beltway 8 at Westview (just north of I-10). They also sell the Federal FMJ and Winchester white box JHP.

I bought four boxes on Saturday. It looked like they still had plenty--another 8 or 10 boxes that I could see. They also have a supply in a case with no glass, so you should not be disppointed.

USA Ammo runs about the same price. I know they are in Houston but do not know if they will let you pick up to avoid shipping.
