Will check back there today to see if I can score another 600 rounds as they had quite a bit in stock, and I went late...

100 round boxes was the bulk of it, different brands. I got lucky with the larger boxes.

Scored another (3) 100 round packs today, would have grabbed more but my Wife was not with me...

Just an interesting fact, the (3) I bought today were from the last (7) boxes in the case, and wouldn't you know it, it was stuck behind some .223 ammo (hidden).

I was there when the regular sporting goods clerk was at lunch, and didn't even spot it, and when I inquired about if they had any left, the guy that was helping me said "oh, here is some here, wonder why someone stuck it back there..." I laughed and said I probably wouldn't have been able to purchase this if the guy who was supposed to be here wasn't at lunch. I suspect he had it stashed for a buddy or two of his...

The guy said he was the manager, and was going to speak to him about that...
This is probably the same guy I foiled the last time I scored 300 rounds that were stashed behind the paper...

Yep, same thing I got 6 boxes of, 40 grain lead bullet cci. Cardboard boxes
I prefer the copper washed ones, but it's 100 rnds for $7.45. No complaints. It shoots.
My "Guess" is that cci made this run for Wal Mart to sell at a good profit. Plastic boxes cost more.

I thought the same thing....Now I am wondering if this is the new norm for CCI.
