Since when is 9mm FMJ going for $.40/round?

[rotag84]

Yup, the 'ammo run' has been going on for several years now.

 

[Katana1]

How high will it go?

I saw 9mm Hornady XTP for $2.10 per round. Invest in lead, not gold.

Right now Midwayusa has 1000rds Blazer Brass 115gr training ammo for 299.00. Better hurry

 

[spencer rifle]

Since never. Roll-your-own 124 gr JHP for 12.5 cents per.

Great advice 6 months ago but small pistol primers are harder to get now than 9mm ammo.

It’s gone now. Probably gone before you hit post.

Isn’t there some sort of no gloating rule around here?

At 74 cents per Rd. this one may actually last a few minutes.

That's why I stocked up on them and other components 4 years ago. Gonna be a while before I can use them all up.

Probably, and because of that I promise not to gloat!

OOS...lol

Yeah, I have close to 6k small pistol and 6k large pistol and enough factory ammo that I don't need to use them. Even sold 1k of sm pistol to a friend at a pre covid price so he could experiment with subsonic 9mm.

I was just getting at the fact that for those who are unprepared, reloading is probably a less viable solution than finding factory loads and paying the price.

Like the goat in the kids storybook....
Gun Broker has plenty for those not preparrrrrrred....

Two words: Re Load.

 

[Gluemanz28]

Two words: Re Load.

Another relevant two word phrase is.
“Too Late”

Components are harder to find than loaded Ammo.

 

[yetti462]

holy moly, I just checked GunBroker on 9mm ammo and small pistol primers. +$100 for 1k primers.

Seems that ammo/reloading supplies are trading at the same valuation as most stocks right now. Highly overpriced.

Saw an article somewhere this week with a rep from Vista Outdoors, but I can't remember where. I think that is a parent company for several ammunition brands. The rep stated that there is NO SHORTAGE of any components, and they are making ammo as fast as they can. People are paying silly amounts for any and all ammunition and there is not really a true shortage. There is likely more ammunition out there than there has ever been, its just demand has gone insane. If you have enough for defensive uses, stop buying bulk right now. This is not the time to stock up for the next 3 IDPA/USPSA seasons. I have been selling ammo at pre-pandemic prices to people all week and giving a lot to family as well.

This is a great time to work on dry-firing, weapon manipulations, and reloads. Maybe it's time to pull out a .22 and work on basic trigger control and have some inexpensive fun!
