Ammo prices

[Kman]

I haven’t bought ammo in a long time and really haven’t looked at prices. I looked tonight and when did 5.56 .55gr start running $0.65 or more per cartridge? I guess it makes sense as housing and most everything has gone through the roof since the last election. I feel terrible for the people just starting out wanting to shoot regularly. There are plenty on here who have stocked up over the years and reload, but damn those are some expensive mag dumps!!

It had been trending down till the problems in Israel. There was a nasty rumor that Lake City was suspending civilian sales and everyone started panic buying which drove the prices back up.

So it’s another temporary panic moment as usual causing another shortage of toilet paper. Pretty damn shocking if you haven’t been following it.

Before the Israeli conflict pistol ammo had been dropping. 556 went from .43cents a shot to 65.cents a shot in about a week.
