Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Walmart deals again (Brick Seek) Weatherbys

I have zero interest in them but my 7 year old thinks they are the coolest thing. He shot it a couple times today after I sighted it in. Personally I think they are a real pain to have to cock and I get no joy from shooting them like I do my compounds, but for $60 I couldn't turn,it down,just to play around with.

You guys are killing me - I can’t find any Remmy 700’s marked down within an hours drive.

I want a Vangard in 7-08 rather badly.

You need to try you some corn fed venison.

Don’t worry.
My lousy Wal-Mart never does either...I mean never!

I'm sure they taste better than new growth white cedar eating free range northern woodland ones.

Nothing marked down hereabouts. The 700 adl synthetics are $369. No 11/87 Remmies in stock. The 700 BDL wood stock is $700.

That's about the situation around my place as well. Glad some are getting a deal though.

You gotta live in the ghettos to get 700s clearanced.....

I thought I found a 11/87 in Greenville Tx. two days a go. Dove the over 50 miles one way to get it. When I got there I was told it was waiting on the background check to clear that was delayed.

Called about 2 in Tyler that brickseek showed to be in stock . I called and was told they weren't there. The next day brick seek showed that store had limited stock instead of two available.

. Called about another limited stock shown at a different Tyler store and that shotgun supposedly had a broken stock. I said I would take it but he said he couldn't sell it.

I called one Walmart in Wylie I don't know how many times that showed Limited stock and could never get anybody to answer the phone in sporting goods except for once when a Nigerian sounding guy told me there may be one but call after 11 when the regular person shows up. I should have called the manager I guess to have handled that.

I've checked every Walmart from Texarkana to Ft. Worth and from Southern Oklahoma to Tyler no luck on the 11/87.

Seems like according to the folks here with experience in these things, calling is not the thing to do. calling and asking for a manager might work, going there and asking for the manager seems to be the ticket when shenanigans are being pulled.

Good luck in your search.

Calling ahead about these tip off the employees. Its just part of the game finding items close enough at enough of a discount to make the drive and be willing to deal with the frustration of going home empty handed at times.

Some of the 700's(7 mags) are $184 in ohio, around cincy. Only found the 7 mags though

I have called ahead several times, and will do that rather than drive a few hours only to be told it's not there. One sporting goods manager told me that they cannot hold items for customers, and that if they are caught doing so, they can lose their jobs. He told me in so many words that they sometimes check up on them, and I'm guessing that's why they won't hold stuff. Although, last year an employee of the Sikeston MO Walmart hid the last $99 Nikon Monarch for me.

As far as them calling a buddy and telling him that a certain item is there on clearance, after you've called and asked about it, that's just a chance you take. Losing an item on clearance is not the end of the world.

Heck I would buy one for that!

I have found only ONE Model 700 on clearance, and it was a 7 RM. That means one thing to me......it is no longer a popular cartridge, and people are just not buying them. I'll either stash mine away, sell it, or if I keep it, rechamber it.

walmart in amelia, Ohio has them

You can obviously tell the ones that have myself, renegade and jamesjr on ignore.
Either that or they just drop in here and don't read previous posts and expect to be spoonfed beta and data.

Go ahead and call the store. That's a great idea.
😄😄

Trying to call Wal-Mart and actually talking to someone is like trying to talk to the wizard of oz.

I call up sporting goods at walmart and ask if they have prince Albert in a can.

Stump the dummy with em every fugging time....
