Just seen American Eagle 55 grain FMJ ammo $71.00 for 100 at the local farm supply store today. Crazy


Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!

a year or two ago 55-60 dollars for 150 rounds for that AE ammo was the norm

now just finding some for sale is a find

The big box stores are 50 to 60 cents on standard fmj 5.56 around here, don't matter if Winchester, PMC, or Federal. The same ammo at some of the smaller gun shops is high as $1 a round. If you get lucky and are at the big box store when a 500 or 1000 round box is available 45 cents can be found, but you have to be there when it arrives or you are to late to get it. Makes me sick to see these prices as we was getting range fodder a year ago for 25 to 30 cents, then covid and the riots started. mad

I've been seeing it pretty regular at Scheels for .50 a round whether it's 62 grain 5.56 or 55 grain .223.

The lowest I paid was 69.99 for 150 rounds.

I did pick up some 9mm yesterday at Scheels. 15.00 for 50 rounds of Blazer. They had just go in a shipment of small pistol primers. I don't use them but should have purchased a brick.

I checked around the net last night for .308/7.62 Nato...

Best price I found was 80 cents a round. It went up from there. Average was a $1.00+

Insane.

I was thrilled the other day when I went to my local small chain store and they actually had 06 ammo -- I didn't buy any though at 36 a box of 20.

Scheels always comes up in my searches for reloading components... But they won't ship powder. frown

Where did you find ANY at? Send PM if you decide to share. Really wanting hunting ammo, but any extra would be good right now. Hogs can’t handle FMJ’s any better than they can hunting rounds. Then again shot placement helps too.

Won't be long before it is worse than the Big O days, you will be limited in your purchase if at all, without a splendid explanation of needing it !

Components for reloading are already shrinking and will continue to do so now, and worse as well, being again limited in nature without approved reasoning.

People are in for a very long nightmare about to start once more !!

Don't think so ? Sit back and watch then, it's coming sooner than later now !

WE NEED WOLFDOG -- tell us how to make some primers -- the rest is just stuff that we can improvise.
