I've noticed that any turkey shells on sale are

[Doskil]

selling out now it seems.


I guess hunters are buying up anything they can afford.

 

[megalomaniac]

Also handloaders....

At times I've found factory loaded tss shells on sale for the equivalent of $60 per lb of shot. Some are buying the shells just to cut them open and cannabalize the shot to use for their handloads.

Black Friday is the day to buy ammo.

That seems a little expensive.

After the ammo shortage a few years ago I bought a lifetime supply when they were back on the shelves. I don't shoot tss though.

 

[Doskil]

I sometimes buy whatever Walmart has on clearance after season

You can find some good mark downs but they don't carry much stock

 

[deerhunter10]

I found some issues from last year prices and bought them. Ive noticed when things go up the tend to never come back down.

 

[megalomaniac]

No doubt!

BUT TSS is $90 per lb for the shot at current prices at most retailers.

I'm going back to lead this year. I cannot in good conscience spend what they are wanting got TSS loads now. I have cases of lead loads in my safe

 

[quackaholic]

I only use tss to use light guns in 20 and 410. I would use lead in my 12 and may very well go back to lead in my 20.
And I quite possibly ordered my last box for 410
Midwest turkey call supply had a decent price on apex i the 10 round box

 

[Carlos Viagra]

I've started using my single shot 22 with rat-shot, just to give 'em a sporting chance.

I always tried to tell my buddies anytime you see good quality ammo for cheap, buy it... can't lose when you do. even if it is in a caliber you don't own. I have a bunch of tss put back but I've also got plenty of Winchester double x in 410 and 20 that'll kill at a fair distance. still debating ordering some more high powered rifle ammo right now on a couple sites just because it's priced so well.... ammo prices fluctuate but since the last big surge they haven't went back to what they were, probably never will.

9mm is getting there. It was 9.99/box for BLAZER 115GR and now you can find it fo 10.99 about every week.

TSS is high even through my distributors. Best I have seen in on the Winchester Long Beard TSS in 12ga, and it's still high on closeout.

that's pretty much the only one that has really... 22LR, Centerfire ammo, shotgun, etc use to you could go to Walmart and the cheap centerfire was $17/box roughly, same stuff now is 23/24 before tax. I'm not gonna complain though... it's at least available for the moment. but if anyone is like me and my buddies the days of burning through a few boxes on the weekends aren't happening anymore.

 

[quackaholic]

Buy it cheap and pile it deep is what an old man told me one time

 

[Gravey]

I've got a box or 3 of 20ga tss when my handloads from @REN run out and if they're still stupid expensive at that point I'll go back to my 12ga and lead shot. Both will kill a turkey just fine 40 yards and under.

 

[Doskil]

A 20 gauge with lead will kill em too

 

[Wrangler95]

Looks like Winchester Longbeard shells this year for my 20 gauge.I shoot them close,plenty good at 30 yards or closer!!

I've never seen tss shells at a Wally World but plenty of Remington lead shells

 

[Roost 1]

Deal on some 3 1/2" 12ga tss in the classifieds.

 

[TNlandowner]

Prices are rising...

My Walmart has actually carried the Winchester Longbeard TSS. I was surprised to see it last year after season ended. I dont usually even go to Walmart for anything hunting related, but I do stroll through the sporting goods when I am there.

I think Walmart only carries lead loads is all I was saying

They carry the longbeard tss and Remington tss here locally

 

[REN]

Ill have to check here in Lebanon but I dont recall that one ever sold TSS shells.

 

[Andy S.]

What a particular Walmart sells is very site specific. I've seen TSS shells at Walmart stores. I've been to a few Walmarts in Missouri that rival Academy Outdoors gun/shell selections.
