How long before the ammo shortage dies down

[BigDee]

Hopefully after today it will die down but at this point who knows. This market is crazy to the point of being stupid. I know several people who aren't gun people, have no interest in being gun people but hit every gun store and ammo seller daily to get anything they can because they say that ammo is the modern day precious metal and they are investing. I think it's dumb but a lot of people said bitcoins were dumb....

You need to brush up on the market. Ammo is the new currency, of course acquiring more to replace the sold stuff is a little harder then before. I reload and don't care one way or the other. Now if only i knew where the wife stashed her supply.

I sold 500 rounds of federal/American eagle to my neighbor. Great guy. Money used will get me 40% more in components that I will get from my brother come August.

I see an ad in the trading post for Federal 550 .22LR bulk at $50 now. Prices appear to be coming down.

Funny guy. Over 2 times normal price = coming down. Oh man, good one.


Man I hope it does get back to normal one day...and by that I mean around $20/brick.

I wish gas was $1 a gallon, but know "They" know what people will pay, so who knows if it will come down to old prices.

I know what you mean.

It is better than the $110 people were paying at the last Tanner show.

I wouldn't bet on it. The consumer has proven how much they are willing to pay. Supply and demand will dictate the price goes lower but if the manufacturer/distributor sees that they can get more they'll charge more too but not twice or three times as much.
