The 300% mark up of the walmart ammo was at a GM in AR not at the store on I-45.Mastodon wrote:Indeed.jmra wrote:yes - his response was supply and demand.Mastodon wrote:How nicejmra wrote: I visited a GM in AR when ammo was really hard to find.

I'll steer my business elsewhere.
Did you call him out on it on the spot?
I guess that's why I stock when I can on good prices; particularly for target/range grade cartridges. I'm not going to be price gouged to the tune of 300% on plinking ammo. I also don't require much harder to find calibers. I suppose on I-45, they are able to get away with folks buying what they've marked up 300%.
Us choosing not buy any is about all we can do with that. Kind of makes me want to run to one of my local small-business gun shops and buy some ammo...
I went back out and left my gun in the car. Didn’t want the hassle.
