Doesnt seem that long ago that they were 30-35 per thou & very plentiful.
I think part of the plan of the anti-gun is to hit the ammo/componets.

Yep. People suck. I blame it on Biden.

The way supplies are rising in price, I think once I've exhausted my current supplies, I'm retiring from reloading. Right now, I have enough supplies to hold off a reasonable Zombie horde...

A commercial reloader was selling some at the Perry show two weeks ago. CCI Small Pistol Primers were $100/thousand. I walked by thinking I'll come back in a minute to buy some. Nope. 5 minutes later he had sold them all (about 10K) and the table was empty. LPP and the SRP were gone too.

You waiting on things to return to "normal?" You got a long, long wait.

They sell for $80/per 1k now retail when you can find them. $100 or $120 for primers when you can get them isn't bad now, and will be the normal thing for years to come, if not the new steady going rate. The value of the dollar is steadily declining yet the demand for goods is constantly rising, of course the price is gonna increase.

That's bad, I hope it goes back to normal .

This is the new normal. It's been like this for over 2 years now what so you think would make it change?

Would this be considered strife?
