One of the main reasons I did not like 7mm08. Choices in ammo at common store. Finding WSM ammo is way easier than 7m08. jmo

For a while they had tons of it. Last few months I hadn't been able to find squat. The local Gander Mountain had plenty although it was an additional $5/box. Last time I checked midwayusa.com had some but thats been a while back.

Academy does carry it, we have just been having a hella time getting any core-lokts from Remington since they ran the rebate program on the stuff in the 4th quarter last year.

I know our store had the Federal Fusion forever but we finaly sold out last week. You might check the usual online spots or some actual gun shops around your area and if all else fails hit up the BPS in Grapevine.

I am having the same problem. I checked the Lewisville Academy again yesterday and they have the same 1 box of Winchester BST and 8 boxes of Fusions. Looks like I am going to have to pay a premium for some Core Lokt's.

I had to buy mine on-line.

Buying 7mm-08 local is like finding a needle in the haystack.

I wish I would have just stuck with another .308.......

I would think that a good local gun shop, like ours, would have some. However if you don't find it locally here is a pretty good site to find about anything.

Kelvinator, thanks for the info. I picked up three boxes this afternoon so there is still plenty if anyone else in looking.

I shoot Federal Fusion 140 grain out of mine. Academy seems to always have them in stock and they perform well.
