What are prices like now?
To: Anti-Bubba182
Prices have risen over 100%.
For example, Winchester “white box” 9mm (100rnds FMJ, bulk-packed) used to sell for 9.99 at Wal-Mart. Now, they’re over $20, if you can find them.
1000rnd cases of 5.56mm FMJ have jumped from under $200 to over $400 (and up to $500 for some brands).
Again, if you can find them.

I'm a sport shooter and go through 1000 rounds a week. I've been lucky to find a re-loader that's supplying me 45 ACP 230 ball for about 27 cents apiece, but I doubt that price is going to last much longer. A hundred rounds at any gun shop is approaching $1, and most places won't even allow you to place an order for
back order.
I'd load them myself as I have access to the equipment, but large pistol primers are simply non existent at this time. Applying for a class 6 license as a manufacturer will make them available, so I'm thinking.

I haven’t priced ammo lately-—I got in ahead of the crowd—LOL! Storage at my house is full.
