I went to the range Saturday with a .22 rifle, .22 pistol and 9mm pistol. I shot the .22’s more. Just plain fun.
My grand daddy’s country store had them at six for a quarter. Way back in the last century.
I’ve found that all ammunition is becoming more available and prices are coming down. But don’t expect to ever see sub $10/box of 50 for 9mm range ammo ever again.
I’ve seen 9mm at $15/box, and it may come down to $12 or so, but not much lower.
Damn, but that's been a loooooong time ago.
Still way overpriced!
Primers arr, still ridiculous.
The last time I bought bulk .22 LR (Federal something or other) was from Midway about ten years ago and I recall thinking how $187 and change for 5,000 round case was a little pricey (about 3.75 cents a round) as I had bought up about 12,000 rounds from a local Target store in 1998-99 that was selling off all its ammunition (“not appropriate product for this neighborhood” said the Baltimore store manager) and I got THAT for about a penny a round.
Funny, because, DICK’s was getting out of the reloading business at the time and I bought up about 20,000 primers (all sizes except 209’s I left on the shelf) for a penny each.
I watched in horror as the prices of .22 LR ran upwards of 25 cents a round during the Obama reign of economic terrorists. 9mm? .45 acp? Unobtanium, but I had ammo cans packed with handloads and factory stuff all lost in a horrible boating accident not long after.
Times being what they are (indifferent to hostile) buy what you can now. I don’t think prices will ever be coming down after industry begins gearing up for WW3 production.

It wasn’t that long ago .380 was two dollars a round.
When I wore a younger man’s clothes, we used to get .22 long rifle for a penny a round.
I recently found two unopened boxes of Federal ammo I bought back in the 1980s. 500 count box. Now it is 325 in a box.
Wonder if it will still shoot.
I should mention the cost back in the 1980s was less than $5 a box.
Anybody having any trouble finding .410 ga. ammo?
Still have federal bulk pack .22 I bought in probably 1985.
500 for 7.99. Still has the price sticker on it. Maybe 100 left.
Just bought a .17 hmr. Love it! Savage 93 bvss. Tack driver! It’ll do at a 100 what the .22 will do at 50. And is effective out to 200 and beyond. Really unless you shoot a lot, a whole lot, rimfire rounds are still pretty inexpensive.
The inflation rate from 1998 to 2023, 25 years, is 1.86. So for those that remember buying a brick on sale now and then for $20, in todays Biden bills that’s $37.20 ori 7.4 cents.
