FTA:

For instance...I paid $149.00 for federal surplus 440 rounds of steal core and now at the gun show today it was selling for $440.00 for 420 rounds.

Seems he didn't shop around.

400 rds. of Remington .223 .......$189.         1000rds. still around $349+/- used to be $279-$300....

Either way, General Mills, (the big food making co.) just came out with their product cost analysis....

We all go the grocery store, and see it for ourselves.

Milk, Meat, Coffee, Bread, etc,...the staple items are all up around 8-10%. It all gets gets passed down to us the consumer. Of course ammo goes with it.....in only one direction,,,,,,,,UP.... :-\

Saw 50 bucks for 100 UMC .45 ACP ad Dicks last week!

.38 spcl has stayed put the last few weeks and everyone had some for a change.  Too bad I'm tapped out...I buy 50-100 rounds when I can and have a few hundred stocked.

Wally world here still has the .45 ACP UMC bulk 250 for $96+tax. But it's a few bucks cheaper to buy the 50 round boxes of Federal for $18. The difference covers the tax so it comes in under a hundred bucks. Every penny counts.  ;D
