Then the OEM’s can charge more, because Midway can sell it for more. That is how a free market works. Midway is obviously willing to pay more, since they cannot keep anything on the shelf that doesn’t run 40 cents per 22LR bullet.
Midway does not pay more.... price lists from OEM’s are adjusted once every year or so, depends on raw materials... sorry but offering more to OEM’s for product does not work. PO’s are placed and product comes... some times 24 months later....
