ammo prices increasing

[Guest vff]

UPS just delivered 10,000 CCI standard Velocity 22's.

I went to buy some shotgun shells this week and was really surprised that they have gone up too to around $7 a box for the "cheap stuff".

I picked up a 100 round value pack of 12g for $21~ at WM.Last time it seems like it was around 15~

Someone told me the increase is not going to be 5 to 15% it's going to be more like 30%.

I just ordered all I could afford (in the dog house but the ammo gets to stay indoors.

Yeah, and I thought ammo was going up due to the high cost of copper. How much copper is in a 12 gauge shell?

If this continues,the mint wont base the dollar off of gold,but copper

Maybe your guns can handle it, but most can't. it'll jam most guns. trust me, walmart gets contracts that no one else can and it's cheaper for a reason.

I shot wwb and wolf exclusively out of my old springfield pro and only one ftf in about 800-1000 rounds. Maybe it just jams up the cheap crap guns.

Depressing, I have been hoarding ammo for awhile now so at least that's a plus.

The place I found the $12.95 .38 special rounds for $12.95 for 50 got a new shipment in and the new .38 special rounds are $20.95 a box and they said that is the cheapest they could get. And just lead bullet not FMJ so yeah where's the copper?
