I've been very impressed that sportsman's guide has kept their ammo prices the same, right around 30 cents per round on the wolf gold 223, and not much more on several other varieties of 223 ammo.
Too bad it's backordered until August 27. By then who knows what may happen. Going to keep my order in though.Quote:

SGammo is my go to source. Love those guys. Their pricing is consistantly good, shipping rates are reasonable, it is fast and even though they may have raised prices a small percentage, they are always the first to drop back down after demand slows down.
Speaking of Jax, some big name east coast sports store just pulled the EBR's off the shelf and out of their ads because of Orlando. They were still going to sell them, you just couldn't see them...
Anyway, Daniel Defense said eff that and terminated their resale account. DD cancled all open orders and pending shipments they had. Private stores are free to be dumb, manufactures are free to not sell to them. That's the way it should always work.
Ammo is going to be pricer because brass, lead, copper, etc. are going up due to the weakening of the dollar (or more accurately, the Federal Reserve's debasement of the currency). All commodity prices, which are dollar-denominated, are headed higher. The possible exception might be Russian ammo, if the ruble weakens against the dollar due to a drop in oil prices.
That may only be partially true. For example, copper is crazy low right now.
The bottom price of ammo is controled largely by commodities. Anything above that is driven largely by supply/demand.
