I've over paid for .22, because that amounts to an extra $10 on a box of 300-500 rounds.

Picked up some 45 range ammo a couple days ago average price of $20/ box of 50.

If anyone wants to pay those prices, let me know. I won’t price gouge, just charge the market rate ;).

Plus, why buy brass when the SHTF..won't be time to reload it :)

Are you saying yay or nay for steel? I can't figure it out.

I buy steel 2 to 1 over brass in 9mm and 223. My AR's run it fine and accuracy is decent.

Supply and demand causes prices to increase/decrease and that will not change. People are free ask anything they want for a product and you are free to pass on that product if it's more than you want to pay. Others may want or need the product more than you and they should have the choice and ability to make any purchase. We are talking about products which are not necessary for life such as insulin or an Epipen. The price of gasoline rises and falls, gold rises and falls, and real estate is at an ridiculous level in Colorado. I'm embarrassed by many of the posts and outrageous statements, many made by lour long time forum members. Many people were did not have the insight as some of you and they didn't create a stock pile of ammo while the prices were low and they should be free to make a decision and decide if they want to pay the current prices that ammo. Why are members of this forum speaking poorly and embarrassing our own loyal members? You are free to pass if you don't want to pay higher prices, knowing you were smart enough to stock up while prices were surprisingly low. People are afraid and many are changing and entering the community of firearm ownership for the first time and they are paying a higher price for their guns and ammunition. Gun owners should be happy that our membership is expanding and not attacking our own members. We should all be supporting each other and stick together as firearm owners and forum members. Some of you should be ashamed for your posts and disrespectful comments.
