The two I got weren't in the case, and they had never even made it out of the back.

I went to the customer service desk and told them that Brickseek showed an item in stock, and that I wanted the item.

I was polite, friendly, and insistent.

Someone from Customer Service confirmed inventory, and paged the manager.

The manager sort of tried to feign ignorance, but she seemed quite well aware that they were out back "in the cage", and that the gig was up.

I'm pretty sure if I hadn't been firm polite and insistent that some lucky Walmart employee would have been acquiring those "unwanted" cans of 855 at $69 and reselling them for a profit.

Lol Dicks price matched Walmart clearance. They had it priced $199 sold it to me for $89 plus tax. Only took convincing of the sales clerk, an asst Mgr, and the manager all verifying the sku on my WM receipt against their box

I hate Dicks and haven't spent a dime in store since they hired the anti 2a lobbyist.  When somebody said dicks was losing money on the pricematch, I decided to try my luck with the 64 dollar price tag or my 71 dollar receipt.

Little manager really fought me on price matching.  Gave me they can't price match below cost.  He would get in trouble for allowing it.  The price wasn't on the website.  It must be a walmart clearance item.   I shot down every excuse he gave.  I told him I wasn't being greedy,only wanting to buy a few  cans.   He said lets ring them up at that 71 dollar price match, if the register takes it they are yours.

So I walked out with two more 420RD cans.  I know this isn't much, but it felt good to do harm to dicks' bottom line.

Got lucky this morning! Mowing season is starting here and I went to the local auto parts store to pick up oil for the mower. I use synthetic and couldn't believe they wanted $9.99 for a quart. I thought well there's a Wally world not that far away where I'd been waiting for the price on these cans to drop from $124. I'll just swing by and pick up my oil and by chance see if the price dropped. When I got to the SG counter an employee was already there (whaaaat?) picking up the spilled contents of an AE .223 100 round box. I was mainly just wanting to see if the can was in the ammo case and not hidden in the back, but mentioned to the SG guy many of the area stores were dropping the price and asked him if they'd be dropping the price anytime soon. He replied they had just gotten some price reductions in and he'd check to see if one of them was for the can. Well what do you know the reduction had just come in for the can! I told him if he'd apply the reduction to 89.00 I'd take it off his hands right then. Score! Win, win and cheaper oil to boot!

This makes my 4th can all at 89.00, thanks OP!!

Just picked up 2 cans at my local Walmart for $99/ea.  The lady at the counter gave me the “ I don’t see them any wher they must not be here “.  She then scanned the code from brickseek and said hmm it says I have 2 here.  Got under the counter on her hands and knees and Alas,,, there they were, stuffed to the back behind everything.
Thanks OP.    Really considering trying to screw dicks or f&s out of a few cans now.

You guys are lucky. I was able to get some of the Winchester 9mm, 45, and 380, but the ammo cans sold out at all of the Walmarts around here as soon as they dropped to $124. I can't believe how quickly people snatched them up at that price.

When you call it just insures that the employee is going to buy them before you get there. If they do have them and they aren't on the shelf, it's also a 98% chance they will tell you that they don't have them.

There are at least 3 of the 62gr M855 cans at the West Point, MS, WalMart. Marked $96.

Could be more there. Lost interest when I saw it was 62gr.

For me the first just looked at the picture of shelf tag and verified UPC. Second store looked at image and called mgmt "cause that is a big difference." They tried looking on walmart.com for it, couldn't find it and told me they wouldn't honor the price. Neither store asked if that photo was from a local walmart.

The manager tried this shit on me.   I said walmart nor dicks shows these cans on their websites.  He checked both sites to verify.  I think that was the  final test before they pricematched my receipt.

That's probably true.

We were driving 750 miles yesterday and called some Walmarts along the way. I pulled off of the interstate one time by Indy to check in person, but I also had to take a leak.

Figured $199 to $89 was a big enough swing, I didn’t want to get greedy and go for the $64 shelf label pic. Maybe I should give it a crack, now that I have one at $89 from them

My local Dick's had 193 that the gun counter guy was going to price match on this picture. Unfortunately, he needed to find it in stock at that price. He called all the local Walmarts and the only one he could get on the phone said $124

The 2 cans i got were hidden under the counter,im guessing to be held for someone.

A clerk asked if i wanted anything and i told him there were two in stock online and to look for a green ammo can.He looked around and pulled them from under the counter where the register is.

Somebody is gonna be pissed

I told them Walmart had them on sale for $64.33, confirmed the UPC/Item Detaiks with with two different teenage managers,rang up and walked out!!!

Use the small corner  UPC Barcode,not the big one
