There are none but who spends that for some steel case junk ?
re: Steel .223 steel case 200 rnds $140Posted by diat150 on 1/21/21 at 5:35 pm to Tigers0891
Someone that wants to spend .70 instead of $1+ to shoot.
shite is insane. I know supply and demand and all that jazz but where is the demand even coming from? Is it backorder? I have alerts set on my phone that haven’t gone off in weeks. So where is the ammo even becoming available to buy? Is the supply that down because of Covid or primers? Is everything being made a certain caliber I’m not looking for?

I wouldn’t be surprised if this “shortage” is being done on purpose. A friend works at the local bass pro and says the same two guys come every day to buy the same caliber the moment they open up. Never fails. And they get it all.

I've shot it and it works just fine.

I’ve been told recently that employees are getting first crack at everything with no limits, and then people that have lined up for an hour out front get to pick through what’s left, and THEN what remains is scanned into inventory. Probably similar with online retailers except all their employees are gun nerds versus three or four at academy.

What do these two gentlemen look like? Are they typical middle aged/retired dudes with a little $$ or are they 20-somethings with purple hair? Because there is a difference.

Seems every month the NICS checks are setting new records. More guns being purchased = more ammo being purchased.
I absolutely struggle to pay the current prices for ammo. $300 for 1k of 223 was about the MOST I’d ever pay for range ammo, $250 for 9 or 7.62x39. Now it’s $500 plus IF you’re lucky enough to find it at that price AND in stock.
I’ve come to the conclusion since the election was stolen that the prices we see now may be the new norm for a while. In fact in 2 mos prices may settle at numbers even higher for God knows how long. Our illegitimate government and rogue ATF surely aren’t going to do anything in the foreseeable future to relieve prices.
For those fortunate enough to have stockpiled what they feel is “enough” ammo, great. But for others, including new gun owners, the price is the price.
And finally, if you’ll allow me to vent: it absolutely infuriates me to see on local gun sites folks jamming fellow gun owners on ammo prices. I know, I know, every man for himself, free market, etc. But I’ve always seen the gun community as somewhat a family. I’m not asking or expecting anyone to sell 9mm at the $.20/rd price they paid 18 mos ago. And maybe these guys are standing in line every morning at Academy, buying up the $.30/rd(?) and trying to “help” those of us who can’t go to Academy every morning. But c’mon, $.90/rd for Winchester white box, Monarch, and the like? Help a brother out!
