Sunday night a friend was asking why ammo he bought went up from about $40 a box to $150 a box since last year. Maybe it depends where you are, or when older supplies run out and newer boxes with more expensive price tags are put on the shelf.


We have Maple Syrup here, too!

It has been observed since the new administration has taken office, that the general population is concerned about direction gun laws might take. To protect themselves, the general public has bought up all existing supply of ammo. The rush to purchase ammo (as well as reloading supplies) began as soon as Obama was declared winner. Now only real oddball calibers are available.

I went to the range today, and was talking too them about the subject. I was told that while no new laws have been passed, that the population is concerned that some tough laws may be handed down. This is kind of the same thing that scopx said. And yes all we have around here on the shelves is odd ball sizes and shot gun shells

Yall need to order your ammo by the case off the internet!

Here's a link to a website that is updated with gun and ammo prices regularly gun-deals . It shows all deals all over the web and at actual walk-in stores like walmart and basspro. Cabelas has great deals right now to and will include sealed ammo boxes with bulk orders.

If AB 962 doesn't get veto'd by the governator, we won't be allowed to mail order handgun ammo anymore in California That gun-deals site is awesome!! Broken down into cost per round and on and on. There's one discrepancy, though; that must be an out of state Wal-mart that the .40 s&w is listed for $13.97/50 rds...if it's even on the shelf it's been closer to $18 for me at Wal-mart.

ATTN: if yer in California, please see my Post #5 above!!
