Crappie Killer: My friend was travelling through Washington State this long weekend and came across Hornady 17 HMR 17 grain V-Max ammunition for $7.99 (seven dollars and ninety nine cents!) a box at the Bi-Mart chain store. He was also tax exempt and bought 3 cartons (1,500 rounds - 30 boxes) for just under $240.00!
Now that is a deal.
The sport shop I went to had the same ammo on sale for $10.00 a box (no sales tax).
Normally my travelling friend buys ammo for "me" when he comes across great deals but in this case he wouldn't share.
He did say he had to "sweet talk" the counter-clerk into selling him that many boxes - and he did not relay to me, that I remember, how many boxes the store would normally allow one customer to buy.
Yes its so energizing to see rimfire ammo available and being affordable of recent!
Hold into the wind
