I see #4s, #5s, and #6s.

The 4s and 5s are $28 a box, it is only the 6s that are on sale for $15 a box. The 6s have been for sale on and off since February I brought it up a couple of months ago in post #2

Scheels must be sitting on a lot of them. Then again I don't believe demand is huge for 1425 fps 16 ga. shells especially in 6 shot. 5-6 years ago when Walmart was blowing out Federal 1 1/8 oz. 6s at 1290 fps for $4.99 a box I bought every box in a 50 mile radius of the house. I'd prefer them at ~1200 fps but can live with 1290 fps at that price. It was the last time I stepped in a Walmart and that was the first time in many years. That price will get me in the door. |

I bought almost every one I could find from the UP to Maine and everywhere in between. I travel a lot, so if there was a Walmart near where I was staying, I stopped. Usually only found 1-2 boxes per store, but if there was more than 4-5 boxes I always left some on the shelf for the next guy. |
