Wally World target shells

[Phil Yearout]

I was in the local Cabela's and they had Herter's target shells at $99.99 a flat. Was on the way to buy some and decided to stop at the Walmart on the way; Federal or Winchester, 7-1/2 or 8's, $34.42 per box of 4. $8.61 a box - not bad!

Similar situation here in NOVA and adjacent MD stores: some WallyWorlds never seem to have any shotshells at all, others a few miles away have them weekly in the 100-packs a dozen or so at a time in 12 and 20 ga. This began to get regular about a month ago.

The Bass Pro Shops store at Arundel Mills Mall in Hanover MD just south of Baltimore had 4 pallets, 2 ea. in 12 and 20 ga. on the floor at 4h of July: Herter's target and/or Rem or AA for $109 per flat. By comparison, the Cabela's in Gainesville VA, much closer to me, hasn't had any 12 or 20 ga. target ammo since just before Memorial Day, only "field and hunting" loads in large shot. My personal take is that it is very much a managerial thing; the "DUH!" factor is prevalent at both retailers when you query them about future shipments and availability.

Local Wally World had 4 packs of 12 and 20 lately, $34.42 per 4 pack. Been buying the 20s and today scored some 12s. 1 1/8 ounce 1200 fps, no 1 ounce or 7/8 ounce. I don't think they will get any cheaper.
