Dang hoarder! Lol! I did the same thing last week at our local Walmart I didn’t really need it but dang it’s a good price!

 

Yes when I see it my Walmart I buy some good price for sure.

 

Too bad we don't have that type of ammo boxes over here. I would buy a lot!

 

My Walmart had 23 cartons today. I couldn’t believe it when I saw it! What is crazy is they have boxes and boxes of 22 wmr every flavor but not one box of 17 hmr! What gives?

 

My local Walmart is just the opposite, always has .17 HMR but rarely has any WMR.
I have to go to any of the 3 Walmarts in Prescott to find .22 WMR, which they always seem to have.

 

I see these every now and then at my local Walmart's. I usually pick up a carton when I see them. They were $27.something a little over a year ago if I remember correctly.

 

I stopped by last Saturday and they had some, picked up a couple of cartons. I will probably stop by again this weekend, same price $29.46, 23.6 cents per round before tax, not bad.

 

I always look at it as $11.8 a box of 50. Makes me feel like I'm getting a great deal.

 

I went back by this afternoon and pretty well cleaned them out, picked up another 6 cartons. I had worked out of town and there was a good sporting goods store in the town. Checked his prices and they had Winchester cartons of 150 for $59.99, Others had prices of 17, 19 and 21/50. I would like to support small business but sometimes you have to look elsewhere. My grandson is learning to shoot, and not good enough yet to justify high price ammo, so CCI it is.

 

By my calculations the Walmart milk cartoons are $5.00 plus cheaper per 50 rounds than any other .22 magnum around me. That's a big difference and all the justification I need to keep buying it.

 

My Savage A22 magnum is more accurate with these than any other ammo!

 

My RAR likes them too.

 

So does mine

 

I've always bought CCI in the plastic boxes, are you guys getting any misfires with CCI Milk Carton ammo?

 

Short answer: Not yet.

I am not a fan of bulk rimfire ammo of any kind, but I picked up a couple cartons when WMR was really hard to find. I pulled out my rim sorting tool, and found that it was just as uniform as any other CCI product, (which is very good). Shooting it in my assortment of .22 WMR rifles and handguns, it shoots to the same POI as the 50rd or 200rd. I'm guessing that the difference in cost is a matter of packaging and packing materials. You could dump a lot more ammo/unit time into the carton, there's no plastic "thingy" to mess with on a packaging line.

As to rim sorting, I sorted the carton ammo into the MTM 100 round flip top boxes. A nearly pointless task as it turns out, it all shoots the same. I've shot my way through about one carton, checking drop and group size with my handguns and rifles, 125yds with rifles, 15yds with my 2" LCRx, 50yds with my Single Six and Super Wrangler, (six total). No big number, but no issues to report. Fliers, minimal and few. No misfires, but my collection hasn't had a misfire with anything I've tried. The foxes were impressed, but not for long.

I wouldn't avoid a sale on "milk carton" CCI 22 WMR.

 

Somebody, Anybody???!!!

 

I haven't yet. But I've not shot much of it. I do have a few boxes stored away so I hope it's good. I actually don't recall a single misfire out of any 22 mag brand I've used over the years.

 

Weather reports are looking good for early next week, so I started loading some magazines for my new S&W M&P .22wmr. 25 rounds per magazine ( they say the capacity is 30 rounds) gives me 5 magazines per carton. Following instructions on opening carton or at least the ones I got did nothing, the spout tears apart. I did load the 5 magazines, plus went ahead and opened an extra carton for my CZ 457 Lux and a S&W M 48 so I will not have to fight it at the range.

 

I bought a carton at a local WalMart at $30.99 or so to try in a recently bought Ruger 77/22 Mag. full stock. It shot quite well, no misfires and actually proved to be the most accurate of the eight different brands/loads I bought to try.

Went back a couple of days later to get the other two cartons that were on the shelf when I bought the first carton and they were gone.

I'll keep an eye out when I drop by WalMart in the future.

 

I scored 3 CCI .22 magnum milk cartons on sale, looking forward to trying some out.

 

I picked up a couple more cartons last week at Walmart.

 

I haven’t seen that stuff in ages

 

I'll be buying some, the stuff shoots great in my RAR for hunting. I just save my old boxes that separate them and will dump from the milk carton as necessary to refill.

 

I just save my old boxes

They work just fine. For other WMR products I just cut the product description off the original box, and put it under the sliding cover.
It's my contribution to recycling plastics

 

125 rounds for $30. Its a shame to think of that as a good price. Dang these thing hive climbed in price in recent years

 

Just a couple years ago $250 a brick seemed like a good price.
Prices have actually come down.

 

I stopped at wallyworld today and picked up two more cartons, now $30.94plus tax. I think they figured out to 24 cents a shot at todays price. If I remember the increase was about $1.50 a carton,

 

I haven't noticed it going up here where I'm at yet. I may go look around at a couple local Walmart's tomorrow and see. I honestly believe I may have enough for a long time.

 

I did notice a buck or two price discrepancy between stores. Not buying any but as always looking at Walmart ammo and remembering. That could be the price change. I had assumed there was some state to state or store to store variation. An increase makes sense. And its not kicked in everywhere yet.

 

I stopped at one of my local Walmart's yesterday for a few items and noticed the $30.94 price on the cartons. They had one carton that I noticed.

 

I picked up 3 box today, my rifle shoot 3/4" at 50 yards with them. Can't beat that for the price.

 

I did as well

 

My local Walmart has them at $29.96 so I asked for a box and the price came up at $31 and change. They let me have only one box at the posted price and immediately removed the price from the rack.
