Default FPBs at Walmart

Still $15 as of 12/26 in South Bend IN area, so still waiting. Was hoping to get some camo gloves but seems just about all camo clothes are gone.

There 15 bucks at our wal-mart as well. I bought 3 packs because they were getting low on them. I have never shot them before, but im hoping they will shoot well out of my g-series whitetail.

Same thing here. Pyrodex RS is still $15.00, 777 is $20.00. The Lawton Wal-Marts are notorious for not marking down M/L supplies.Still have quite a few FPB bullets but my Encore needs to have the zero checked before hog hunting with it again.

No BP stuff at any of the WalMarts around me. The guy behind the counter at one of themmentioned they don't move any of it until it goes on sale at clearance price so that is why they don't carry it anymore. I guess we can be our own worst enemy sometimes.

So if you have it at your, good luck in the future.

You would think that would tell Wal Mart that if they were not trying to make a such a large profit on everything they sell, and lowered their prices like their commercials used to imply.. they would and could move products and still give the consumer a better deal. I called mine today and their powder prices have not dropped enough to make me jump.

Wal Mart used to be a good place to shop. We now have a super wal mart. And I hate to say, but I can get groceries and lots of other stuff cheaper at other stores...

They are still $15 at my Walmart too. 12/28. They had a ton of them left, so I will wait until next week, and see what they are then. Not much stuff left around here.

i agree on grocerys, we shop at SCOTS/WEIS STORE and prices are cheaper.

I bought the last 3 boxes of 200 grain Shockwaves that the local store had for $7 eachbut the FPB's are still at $15 after 3 weeks. I still have 3 packs so I'm not in a hurry to buy them at a higher price than I paid for the ones I have. When they drop them down I will buy some more, they still have about a dozen packs at the store and the stock has been at that level for several weeks so no one else seems to be in a hurry to buy them either. I hope they drop the price this Thursday so I can pick upa few more for a reasonable price. All the store had for powder is 777 2F at $20. That price is about what the Sportsmans Warehouse sells it for all year long so I don't consider that a big discount, I'llhold offon that also.
