I know we all wonder how much other people are paying for their ammo and where they live and also whats available there.So to make it easier I made this post.
Example:
I use CCI Blazer-22 $
There is CCi Blazer 22$/500 ,Rem thunder x/### and Win super X's for xx/xx available where I live that being Toronto I but them at this store the X Store.
Let's try and keep this post as active as possible and not let it fade away once it reaches the 20+ posts like most.
 
Cheapest I can find is Winchester 333 for $13.96/333 at Walmart, which comes in just slightly cheaper than the CCi Blazer at $22/500.

Winchester 333 is a 36 grain Plated Hollow Point 1280 FPS (advertised on box) feeds great in my sig p226 LR which I shoot about once a week. Doesn't feed well in my henry lever though, haven't tried it in my 10/22 yet.
 
I like the Winchester 333s for all my guns about $14 a brick of 333.. But yesterday i found Federal 525s for $14.99 a brick. Bought them out as gophers cannot tell what ammo I use. If they do not prove accurate enough, I will sneak up and throw them at the critters...lol...lol

14.99 !!!! Where and how many you buy ?.
 
AE was 2.29/50 at WSS today. (I didn't buy because they had 19.99/500 a couple of weeks ago.) Went to Can.Tire right after, AE was 3.59/50. I almost went back to WSS.
 
Got the deal in a small town Co-op gas station. Left word that next shipment , I want 10 bricks or more. They get used up quickly when you shoot a brick or more each day.

Certainly do not hesitate to go out to some of the smaller towns and check out the mom-pop hardware stores etc. Low overhead and repeat business is what they need. The bigger stores have a "profit margin" that is huge.

The uptick in Fed 525 prices must not yet have hit MB.....;)

Was that the regular price? They were on sale here awhile back for $14.99 too. Trouble is it's usually old stock and when they get the new order the price goes up.

Around here, a brick of federals goes for $24.99. AE at Peavey mart is always $2.19/50.
 
I shot Win. 333 in my 597 and Fed. Champion 525 pack in my Norinco M93. I bought a few boxes of 333 a while back when they were $9.99...Federal used to be 17.99 IIRC. now I pay $23 for a box.
 
It would be nice to see dealers reply to this thread with their price and offers, especially free shipping even if its for a case.
I am thinking FRONTIER FIREARMS $239 FOR 1 CASE OF FEDERAL = 10 BRICKS
Wholesale Sports I have heard have good deals but someone eventually cleans them out. I dont know if you can preorder at that price.
 
Wholesale Sports had the Federal 525 for $22.99 or so. One good tip a friend gave me is if canadian tire or walmart has those specials like spend $50.00 and get $10 cdn tire $ or for walmart spend $200.00 and get $25.00 gift cards, that is the time to stockup on Ammo.
It has been a while since any of these stores advertised such a sale.
 
Bricks of American Eagle at wanstalls for 22 or 23, my 10/22 loves em, everywhere at belles in Abby its like 28 for the same brick, littel gas station in hatzic is 27. I will never buy remmington again, so many weak loads, probably 40 or so in the last box I bought, and equal number of ftf's, tons of fte's and half cycles, very poorly metered charges crappy vertical groups. AE I maby have 5 issues in total from brick, and my 10/22 shoots 1"+/-.25 @ 100y all day with them so Ive never bothered with any high grade.
 
Did not know that ammo got "old"...I have had ammo from the 50s that shot just fine. the turn over is fast enough that there is new stock every month.

What I meant is that it's sat there for awhile. They bought, or ordered in when cost was at, say $12, then marked it up to $15. Price tag says $15, but when they re-order, the cost is say, $18 and they mark it up to $22.

Our local Co-op is funny that way, if there's 4 of one item that may be a slow mover on the shelf and the one in front says $10, you dig to the back and the price goes down. Sometimes they even forget to take the sale sticker off....Bonus.
