    Default CCI standard velocity

    I?ve been shooting CCI standard velocity ammo in my V22 for practice and saving the expensive Eley ammo. CCI shoots pretty well in the V22, even to 150 yards or more. I was running low on CCI and haven?t seen any in a while. Stopped at WalMart to pick up a prescription and found they had 500 round bricks in stock. I asked for one thinking the price would be outrageous but it rang up for less than $26 so I grabbed another. I didn?t expect to find any of this ammo and especially for the price. If anyone needs some you may want to hit up your local Wally World. Besides an occasional prescription I think the ammo was the first thing I?ve purchased there in a long time.

    Yeah, that's incredible.

    The WalMart I visited is off Arapahoe east of I-25. They had another 2-3 bricks left. Limit was three but decided to leave some for others.

    North Longmont WM had plenty of CCI SV 50 round boxes at $5-something each, but no cheap bricks.

    That’s a bummer. I wondered if they even had it priced correctly? At just over 5 cents per round I should have bought another brick, sign said three box limit on ammo. I was shocked when it rang up as less than $26. I wonder if the full bricks were back stock and not intended to be sold as a brick and had an old price? They scanned the SKU on the brick, not the 50 round boxes.

    I would say a SKU legacy pricing error has a high probability of the source of the deal.
