Great price for 2021. Did they have much, and did they have limits?

Got one in Amarillo that gets ammo in every week. The problem is they stock the shelves Tues night and as soon as the store opens on Weds at 0800 there are a bunch of retired guys that are there every week at the same time and they slick the shelves. Never understood why they don't stagger the days and times to stock ammo among every day of the week to prevent this. Anybody that has to go to work can't be there at 0800. But it is what it is.
The Academy Sports in Amarillo also gets ammo in and Fri is their day to have it on the shelves. The same bunch of retired guys are also there when it opens. As soon as they get the ammo it goes on sale on places like gunbroker. I have talked to the guys that run the gun counters in both stores and they say the ammo is always bought by the same bunch of guys every week and it doesn't matter what caliber it is, they grab it all, week after week.

Great price for 2021. Did they have much, and did they have limits? They had probably just 30 or so boxes, with a 2 box per person limit. I had my son with me, so we got 2 boxes a piece.

Same thing in Vernon.

If it's like Tractor Supply they charge 147% of retail for bad products.
