Ammo Tips Hardware

[Absent Anima 0]

Was at tips hardware earlier today, shelves pretty full off ammo. 1 brick limit on 22, had standard and high velocity for $39 a brick, 2 box limit on handgun rounds, and plenty of 223, 308, and 7.62x54r. Added bonus they had plenty of ARs on display for sale including a Kris Vector and a treat from Armalite up top that i dont recall seeing there in the past. Paid normal price for the handgun rounds, $22 /box of 50 40s&w

Did you see the price on the .223?

Different brands had different prices, but I remember a box being 7.99/ 20rounds. Not terrible. Keep an eye on cabelas I got some herters and wpa for 5.99 a box last week

$22 for a box of .40 S&W .. so I guess $25 for a box of .45 ACP isn't not bad??

 

Just bought a 1911 so trying to figure out what is considered "fair price" for ammo...

Dick's sells the American eagle .45 acp for $25 when they get it in. I have never seen .45 less than $22 a box of 50 this year so far.

Funny, I was just at Tips this morning and thought the same thing about the full shelves of ammo. Saw .22 lr on the shelve but did not buy since I am pretty well stocked for now. A few guys were drooling over the Kris Vector as well.

I hear they are putting have of there ammo deliveries aside to have it available for customers at their new range and gun shop opening next month.

Ive been out of .22 for a few weeks and would have paid gouged prices to have some. My schedule doesnt let me get to the big box stores to grab it when its in. Was pleasantly surprised when i saw anything at all.

Yea this shop is like a hidden gem for ammo. They have tons of rifle ammo at any given time. Even have some hard to find handgun ammo like .32 long in stock.

Ill be going there in the future more often. I've bought rifles from them I'm the past but the ammo was usually more expensive. Now its the same price as the rest, but in stock

I was at tips on weds, my friend brought a brick, $40, got home and realized it was a 400 round "brick", just keep an eye out for that, grocery stores have been downsizing quantities for years, maybe the ammo companies will be doing this too.

Are they AE hollow points? AE sells 10 fifty round box bricks of round nose but its 10 fourty round boxes for hollow points.

Last week I bought a 375 round brick of Federal .22 lr ammo for $25 at Tip's. They did not have any on the shelf. I was picking up two guns I bought, a rifle and a .22 pistol. They asked if I needed any rifle or .22 ammo and I told them I was good but asked what they had. He went in the back and came out with the Federal high velocity brick. I never shot this type so I figured I would give it a try.
