Walmart: 2 boxes ammo only, or 2 boxes of the same caliber only?

[gilliu]

Hi All

Have bought ammo at the Greenwood Walmart several times. Today was the first time that I was limited to two boxes. Previously, I was limited to two boxes of the same caliber, but often left with six boxes purchased (2 of 9mm, 2 of .22, and 2 of .223).

Anyone know what is the official rule?

Last time I went it was one! Usually 2 of each type, but it changes with the walmartian behind the counter.

I think it's 2 of each caliber in Camby.

Depends who is there. The southport walmart limit is 6 boxes total, any caliber.

I bought 4 boxes of .40 tonight, nothing said about the 2 box rule.

At the walmart in Columbus it say 2 boxes of each type and one bulk pack is the limit.

Anderson Wally World doesn't have a limit that I'm aware of. Bought 3 50rnd boxes of Federal (9mm) for $9.95 each no problem.

In Schererville IN there is a sign posted with a 6 box limit. I just saw it a few hours ago.

Fort Wayne has a six box limit.

Which one? Southtown doesn't have any sign up. I haven't tried to buy that much at one time but just wondering.

Fort Wayne has a six box limit.

This is the limit sent down by Home Office for all stores way back when the shortage/scare (whatever you want to call it) first started. However any store can adjust the limit based on their sales volume of ammo and the amount they are getting in.

Was at the Fishers 96th St Woo-Ming, the other day, asked for and got two boxes of federal 9.mm, but the sales lady (Louisa) asked the counter guy "How many could I buy at once" and he held up 4 fingers, meaning four boxes of 9mm was the limit on 9. With six boxes total of combined ammo.

Wal Mart on SR46 Columbus has no limit on the ammo as stated to me by the employee behind the counter, I then proceeded to purchase all the Federal 9mm on the shelf and two bulk packs of .22. He stated to me the other just off US31 had ammo limits.

Just look at it like a sport or gambling...you get whatever they think should be the rule on that day. It makes no sense that you could buy 6 bulk packs OR 6 boxes of 50 rds. I've found that I like the little 50 rd boxes of the 22lr Federal Lightning packs. They are actually cheaper at some Walmarts if you buy 11 packs than the big federal 550 bulk packs but I found they are a little more manageable than the bulk packs at the range. Anyway, sometimes they limit those to 6 as well, but some Wally Worlds have a "rule" to allow for 10 of those. So you can be limited to somewhere between 400 and 3300 rounds...

I know, I know....I should not have said anything about it. My honey hole for ammo will probably be emptied out the next time I go in for a few boxes
