Palmetto State Armory keeps them in stock pretty regularly; they have the "Not For Duty Use" and unmarked versions.

SGAmmo.com has the best price on them. Very good shipping pricing as well. If you want them locally, 400 J&L sells them, but they are more expensive there.

I haven't seen any at the one near Town Center, have been meaning to take a look at some others, got a Walmart gift card from work I was going to use, if I can't find the ammo, my daughter will gladly take the gift card :-)

I kept an eye on the Cumming and Alpharetta Wal Mart stores while I was home, and never saw any. I asked the "gun counter" guy at the Cumming store if he had seen any, and he gave me the

Cherokee Gun and Pawn.

180 bucks for 420 rounds.

$0.43 per round. Shit... looks like the price is crawling back up. Might be gunshow time to find some.

I haven't seen any at the 2 Walmarts I've been at recently (Savannah). Out of curiousity, what's the price at WM? For comparison, one of these is $154.33 (includes $14.38 s/h) from aimsurplus.
