Wal-Mart has had the core-lokts most of the fall for 12-15 a box for the popular calibers. 243, 270, 30-06, 30-30, 308. Ammo sure has went up though. They were selling the Fed Classic for 9.99 a box but it didnt last long. I probably bought 15 boxes of that altogether myself..lol. Theres 2 Wal-Marts in Beckley one in Welch (no kidding) and that one in Logan. You are right though...average prices are over $20. Convienence matters though sometimes.
