Buy recommendations New Winnipeg Princess Auto ammo/gun selection?

Anyone from Winnipeg, MB been the new princess auto store?

What selection did they have for ammo, guns and reloading supplies?

Thanks

Edit: They sell federal, Hornady and Remington winchester ammo. Some bulk ammo in .223. Prices are either slightly above or slightly lower when compared to other stores like Canadian tire etc, depends on calibre.

They sell some reloading stuff, projectiles and brass. No primers or powder.

Slightly disappointed overall imo

They are in Winnipeg, will eventually rock out to every store. They are selling fire arms as well

They added a bunch of ammo to their website, I discovered that today when looking at new stuff.

Why not? Canadian Tire and Co-op do.

I was just in a little mom and pop grocery store in Quesnel BC, they had a gun counter at the back with a decent selection of ammo.

Co op?

u/FenderFanatic Jun 03 '26

Yeah. Not at all Co-op stores but I've seen Co-op ag centers and other centers that have guns, ammo, and reloading supplies.

PA doesn't hold nearly the market share that canadian tire does, not to mention most canadian tires cant even stock their pro shops well

Maybe it varies by location. I've seen Canadian Tires that aren't far behind my closest Cabella's.

Yeah i live near the largest Canadian tire in the country, their pro shop is great. There is another one in the city that has the bare minimum. No guns , just some hodge podge ammo. It definitely varies by location. And canadian tire is dealer owned franchises. Meaning its up to the discretion of the owner to choose how stocked their pro shop will be.

The new flagship store is trying to compete with Cabela's. It's a fucking huge store.

there is a way, and its called "stocking live ammo and firearms." Head down to the store on Panet and look for yourself
