    Default Ammo prices to rise?

    Heard at the show and from an email from Natchez that ammo will be going up possibly 15% on May 1st.

    I order my bullets (not cartridges) from Wideners. And they posted on their site that everything associated with ammo is going up. So, I ordered some bullets...

    Considering the fact that the dollar has been devalued by about 20% over the last year, a 15% increase in the price of anything is a bargain.

    Has nothing to do with ammo prices going up. Gas is rising, Freight shipping costs go up, they pass those high costs to the consumer. Same thing happening with food prices.

    Their prices have been creeping up for a while, and in several cases, wal-mart is more expensive than the competition.

    Well, shit, I'm glad to hear that the gun show experts and Natchez have better commodities analytics than Goldman, JP, Barclays, and the rest of the bunch.

    Nothing rises uniformly, in concert, on the same day. Prices have steadily rising in every sector, the US Dollar (as previously noted) has been tanking hard, and demand is only rising.

    I'm not saying that Natchez isn't raising their prices 15&#37;, but rising prices are not a secret, and it's not like everyone is doing +15% ON THAT DATE.

    Pulled LME spot prices for the last year in USD/Ton for Copper and Lead: (bear in mind that the dates are euro-style DD-MM-YYYY)
