Inventory is exactly what Brickseek indicated. In Billings MT there is one syn 308 and one syn 30-06 left at the King St location once I leave, lol. The other Billings and Laurel show single 270 syns and 243s as well... King is showing a 308 too. Some 308s syns in Rapid City SD last I checked.
Thanks for the heads up on these deals and inventory.....
Ohh, there was a moment where they were atrying to splain to the manager that they ain't had a chance to make the $249 tags yet....
Since my purchases 45 minutes ago, Brickseek has updated! Slick!
Love the 24". Comes with free 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, and 23" barrels!

Brick Seek said two Mini’s in Steubenville OH. About an hour from me. I called first. Nice lady said system says two but they have none. She speculated they were lay away items that didn’t get cleared from the system. Same situation in Moundsville WV. Cool tool, but worth a call before driving significant distance.

I had to join in the fun, couldn't pass up a .308 synthetic for $265 out the door. Already had brass, dies and bullets from the previous Rem 700 I sold. Thanks for the heads up!

Brickseek is valuable, but don't just count the on hand inventory numbers as gospel. Call and verify. Don't ask me how I know.........

The Oneonta, NY store didn't have any of the ones that Paul listed in the OP. They did have a Savage Axis Stainless/Synthetic in 6.5 Creedmoor for $369 but I'm not ready to drink the Kool-Aid yet.

I wish Travis would have told us how cool these rifles are years ago.... Indeed. Apparently some haven't been watching for years. For some buyers it seems like they are a totally new item for sale to sportsmen that only Walmart shoppers knew about before this annual sale event. I had been without a Ruger Mini-14 for over a year and was debating about spending ~$750 for one. The $399 tag made it an easy choice for me. And I did pick up a Vanguard 243 also for a grandson because I knew that they were good rifles from past experience..
It's official. I missed the selfie deadline so I'm Maser's sock puppet because rene and the Polish half of the fubar twins have decided that I am.

I picked up 6 vanguards today thanks to you guys. In addition to the one I bought last week which is a 243 SYN that I will keep for my 6 year old son.
I think I got hosed today though. I bought 3 syn and 3 wood deluxe various calibers $1905.00 tax and all out the door today and I had to drive 2.5 hours each way to get them. I only made the drive initially to get a mini 14 but they were out of stock.
This may sound crazy, but I took them back to my local gun store guy who recently donated $1,000 worth of shotguns for our VFW raffle when I asked him. He helped the VFW out big time. A few months ago a member stole a lot of money from us and we went out in the community to seek donations to pay back bills. This local gun store owner gave us a 12 gauge Benelli and a 20 gauge Benelli to raffle free and clear. We made $3500 off those guns for the VFW.
Anyways, I sold all six of them to him for $2,000. He already had 5 new Vanguards in stock as he knew about the sale and bought three himself to add to his inventory of two which he said he paid $408 a piece for at his costs.
Additionally while I was there, I bought 2 heritage rough rider 22 pistols (valued at $290 total) that I had ordered last week but not paid for yet to give one as a gift and keep one in addition to two new Henry rifles one for me and one for my son ($325 each) They are the kind with no brass or shiny metal.
I got all four guns for a total of $736.00 his cost with a discount and no tax as pay back for my service. The guns would have cost me about $1,000 with tax out the door regularly.
I felt like I should have gotten more from the rifles but I didnt need them and I didnt want to sell them one by one over the years. I also felt like I owed this guy who stepped forward and donated two shotguns when we needed them. Maybe I am just soft hearted and gave away alot of guns but whats done is done. He is gonna scope them out and sell them at a discount for deer season.
I guess I should of held on to them or demanded more money for them but I felt like I made the right decision. I mean I got a Weatherby Vangaurd in 243, two heritage rough rider 22 pistols and two new Henry rifles for less than a $1,000. Now I am waiting for the ATF to come visit me lol

Inventory is exactly what Brickseek indicated. I physically checked 3 Walmarts nearby that showed 0 low Stock. All 3 had guns on the shelf and in the back. No 243s though, so I walked. Best to always check in person.

Mine is sitting in acraglass right now. I’ll texture and paint the stock tomorrow. Then mount up a Leupold I’ve got around here.

I picked up a synthetic vanguard in 243 and one in 270 for $249 each at the Rexburg, ID Walmart today. I called around on Friday and all the local stores said $349. I asked them to scan one and they just reassured me they were $349. I by chance had to go to Walmart today and remembered to check for myself. I guess I just missed the last 30-06. I better go get them out of the truck and look at them. I didn't even look in the boxes when the brought them out. I put way too much faith in the Walmart guys doing that but I was in a hurry which is never good at Walmart.
