I predict $1.50/rnd by mid October.

I dunno but I'll come off enough at $1.00/round to use the profits for this.. We'll see if it hits $1.00 I think it might when the election gets here this shortage thing is going to go nutz.
$0.18 per round to roll my own. 50 a day keeps the commies at bay.
For the cheap steel stuff? My experience has always been the good stuff has always been expensive.
Usually standard 55gr stuff is 28-38 cents a round. But now its silly.
I payed 19.2 cents a round the last time I bought wolf 223.
* a laugh is heard coming from somewhere behind TheGerman's fortress of WC844 *
* A happy tune can be heard from the Chikn's fortress of TAC, BLC2, and 75gr BTHP......."I'm walkin on sunshine...whoohooo..."
I just burned through my last 8lb jug of wc844.
Wish I could find some more. I'd even like to find wc846. Haven't seen it around here for quite awhile.
That's right at what it costs me. 75gr fmj "seconds", they shoot just under 1" most days.
If you have one you can get the other just saying
I've got 5 spam cans of 7.72x54 R and enough Mosin's and stripper clips to spread around the house so I'm good. Although the Hungarian heavy ball kicks like a mule out of an M-38, but the fireball is cool. Also do have my 5.56 and 7.62x39 and 9 mm.
I’m still loading 223 with W748 and XBR I bought before Obama was President.
I think if watching current prices doesn't just make your day it's probably because you're unprepared.
Smh...crazy.
5.56 I was still able to find reasonable a few weeks ago to add to my stash, but this week alone it has gone nuts!
68 grain Frontier (just an example) is $21 a box of 20. That's higher than FGMM 77 grain. I can't even find 9mm 147 Federal anywhere, but even if I did, I'm sure it would be 3-4 times as much, too.

I'm just annoyed that all the 5.45 I got for basically free years back hasn't skyrocketed to $1/round.
So if you ever see me with a Krinkov, know that shit has gotten so bad that I'm out of 5.56.

I wish I could shoot gold. A bunch of dudes would be full of bling-bling, teeth included.
lead would be the new cold but its not just lead you would need copper and tin or what ever is mixed in to lead to harden it up pure lead melts at like
621.5°F
327.5°C

I am well stocked. Have not bought any ammo since the inflated prices kicked in.
If it goes to $150/round I will keep about 1k for myself and cash out the rest.....LOL I been wanting a new ZCO scope.
Actually just cruising around on ammo seek, there is less popular carbine rounds out there for about the usual going rate; Self defense ammo running about the same for LE 50 round, and 22 Target (that fancy stuff I never shoot anyway) is still about normally priced. It's the 223/7.62x39 that is becoming or at least approaching per pound silver.
If Trump manages to win it'll take 2 years to replenish the supply. Of course, if he loses, then there will be no more and what's left will go to Govt.
If it goes to $150/round then we're going to have a private island shortage!!

Watching a GB auction for 1k .223 primed cases, current bid is $405 with 3 1/2 days to go.
What’s my M855A1 worth now?
Should have bought another 100K back in January when I did my last bulk buy.

My buddy told me that small pistol primers are at 150/K on gobroker right now. I about shat myself. Looking on ammoseek I'm not seeing any small pistol primers at the moment.
What's 22lr looking like these days? I know that we saw crunches on it historically but I'm really wondering if centerfire rifle and pistol are gonna be where the action is right now.

Look for yourself. You'll find that's about right.$125- $150/1000 BIN price. Most active auctions with bids are at $100+/1000 .
Bought 5K yesterday for $200.00
Unless you want match grad Lapua, SK or something like that there is none. I almost ordered a brick the other day and hesitated. Gone. Of course now my HVAC is on blink so I guess I’m glad I didn’t buy.
Just wait until it's clear the Rs will lose the Senate...then you can probably 2x all these "crazy" prices.
I've got a decent stash but not as much as I'd like to be able to shoot recreationally the next couple years without taking out a 2nd mortgage.

I don’t care. Have 10k in the reserve and components for another 5k. I should make it past the election.
That would almost get me to this November at my current burn-rate.
Shit, I just need to get more components.
Fuck buying ammo. Unless they're giving it away or it's something I don't load for some reason (+P, +P+, .40 full power) I make ALL my own.
I would like to entertain a different powder than H335 for the 5.56 shit some day but I think I'll be using and shooting this shit into the next decade. It makes good ammo but I've never seen a dirtier action and the shit absorbs oil like cat litter, so thank god for JP Ent. FMOS BCG's, because they'll essentially work oil-free when that happens.
What's funny is these crazy bastards stockpiling have zero idea what to do with that shit. I just hope they buy good shit because it wouldn't be worth my time to collect all the PSA's and Wolf ammo they have to drop in order to run!
But seriously, this shit happens every four years now. Only difference this time is we're in a cold civil war already and things could heat up.

I just sold my Cousin who is just starting to get into shooting and can’t find any ammo 1000 rounds of pmc 55 grain for $350. Does that make me a fool or a good family member? Either way my stash is quite plentiful.
Always good to get people on the right side involved and shooting.
I’ve given away ammo, ARs, mags, silencers etc. the more arms in the hands of good people the better for what the future holds.
Better to have 5 friends with ARs versus 10 ARs collecting dust in the safe
Silver....in case the vampires attack.
Silver is for werewolves, you need to start loading wood bullets for vampires. Oh, an you have to shoot the vampires in the heart, otherwise, you're wasting ammo.
