Not going to do anyone's homework for them, but if I lived in a certain part of the country, and wanted a Remington 700 in a choice of calibers for $184, I'd be at Walmart right now instead of sitting at home reading this.
Over and out.

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. DO NOT CALL. repeat---- DO NOT CALL DO NOT MENTION BRICKSEEK EITHER Brickseek is an awesome tool, but if Walmart corporate gets a bunch of complaints from their stores that 'smart' shoppers are using it and demanding service based upon those inventory numbers it could result in the system being shut down....... Do not kill the goose that laid the golden egg!

Some of the 700's(7 mags) are $184 in ohio, around cincy. Only found the 7 mags though 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. There are other calibers floating around on clearance. Not just 7mm mags. I know 243 for certain was put on clearance also. The clearance process seems VERY random, but from what I have seen, if a certain model/caliber gun sits for more than 3 years in a store it will get flagged in a corporate system to be clearanced in that store. The store 15 minutes away does not clearance the exact same thing because they sold one in the same time frame. Just my guess though

Slumlord-- brickseek has been an awesome tool for me. Hate to see it get ruined. Almost afraid to reference to the "D" alternate tool for this reason

Brickseek is still showing 3 ADLs clearance priced for $184.00 in stock at the same Walmart in my general area. All three are scope/rifle combs --- one ( "Limited Stock" ?) in .270, and two -.243 youth models.

You gotta live in the ghettos to get 700s clearanced..... OR in a state that does not allow rifles for deer hunting!

I hate Walmart. Stopped at one in Bowling Green KY, and there was an 11-87 20 gauge for $249, and the damn thing followed me home, along with a set of 12 gauge Remchokes that were on clearance for 15 bucks.

Went by the two Walmarts close by today . I passed on the Savage A17s for $184 but i did clean out the Federal high brass 16 gauge #6s for $3 each. Didn't see any other great deals.
