Went on ammo seek yesterday     :o
Holy SHIT !.
Prices have doubled, or more.
9mm I paid $18 for is now $32, 357 magnum, $42 a box.
Hope you stocked up before because only a crazy person or REALLY ignorant new shooter will be paying that.
There is a bit of a silver lining though.
Dems claimed guns were easier to buy than books or veggies.
Well I've sure never seen a $40 cucumber.

Ammo is high everywhere Tom.  The only place it get's towards a reasonable price is if it's been on the shelf and has not been marked up over the last several months.  I had to pick up a prescription at the drug store the other day and scored a couple of boxes of .243 for $30 each.  All the new stuff is $50 and up.

That's right.  Our drug store sells ammo and guns.   https://hectorpharmacy.net/services.html

Yep.  I'd post a pic if I could....oops.  I guess I can.  Does anyone else have a forward thinking, progressive pharmacy as well?

There use to be a store in rosvile ca that sold booze porn and ammo.  Its been closed for a long time but i remember going into it as a teen and getting kicked out.  Bought some ammo from them around 01-02
I always break all the clay pigeons,  some times its even with lead.

I bought a bunch of 22LR for 3.8 cents a round back a few months.  I think I'm going to sell off most of it at the next gun show.  The prices now are unbelievable...and people are paying it.

The last I bought before it dried up was $25 a brick (.05 per round) for Aguila standard velocity 36 gr lead.

I am actually looking for 556 brass.  That is also double the price from starline.

Everglades Brass has 5.56 MM new brass for $59.00 for 250... Or $236.00 @ 1,000. They're out of stock right now on their Mil-Surp once fired brass. But when they have it, you can buy it cleaned, processed, resized, and ready to load for $85.00 per 500. I've actually gotten 1,000 for that price. But times being what they are, it's higher. You can have them E-Mail you when they get it in. They usually have fresh supplies coming in quite often.
