in local store if you can find it..

Guys in my area know when the stores such as Dunhams receive their ammunition shipments and are lined up before the store even opens..........They sell out as fast as the cash register print receipts.

I have ammo but they are steel casings and the local gun ranges won't allow them....brass only since they collect them and resell as scrap.

As a result, I had to break down and pay about $49 a box for 10 boxes.....

It wasn’t a blister pack, more expensive hard plastic box with cells.

Were they match grade bullets?

I just can’t imagine why you would bother with that kind of packaging for bullets.

Bullets are not going to be damaged by bumping around in a box with each other.

That price seems very high.

The prices I find on line are around $45 to 50 for 100 Hornady Match Grade ballistic tipped bullets.

Were they in stock?

These might have had a premium price because they were in stock in the store (one box)

I have never seen packaging like that before. They may have been special. I think the package was labeled with superlative adjectives.

The Web Page said they were in stock.

Considering the packaging I would say they were Super(lative) Match Grade.
