    Default WTH ?! Winchester .40

    I bought a 100 rd box at wal mart yesterday and the primers pockets look like they have sand/dirt/crud in them some are blackened as well. I am going to e mail winchester. this is bs.
    I will get pics shortly.

    INSPECT YOUR AMMO at the store if possible.

    Just checked and the 100 rd box of 45 is fine as well as the 44 mag and 270.... weird.

    possibly as the box is not glue sealed like the .45.... but the rest of the rd looks like new mfg stuff like I have bought before... it also doesnt brush off either...

    It's probably that DNA trace substance the Gun Czar was talking about.

    Actually you may be right....

    That is strange though, I've bought several WWB 100 round packs of .40 from Wally World and never seen anything like this. I will keep my eye out for similar incidents and report. Let us know what they say!

    I don't think so, they were very anal when They sold me the wrong ammo and I did not relize it till I almost walked out the door, I went to the return counter and they were saying I could not return it, I told them I have not left the store yet look at the store cameras, they did and I got a refund
