I have been reloading for a little while but not long enough to replenish my supply to SHTF standards after a trip to the range. Well I had some shopping to do today and like always stop by the ammo cabinet at Meijer. $25 for 100 rounds WWB 9mm. I turn 23 tomorrow, so have only been able to buy handgun ammo for 2 years. I can remember buying it for $20 per 100.
Well Dicks had sent me a coupon for ammo and I was heading there anyway so I figured I would just get it at Dicks. Upon arriving at the counter, I see a sign saying buy one get one 50% off WWB. So, I ask the associate how much is the 9mm. He replies $32....don't buy it here buy it at Wal-Mart. That is $12 increase in two years! So with my coupon and the bogo it was a little cheaper than at Meijer, but still not cool.
Throughout my short life I have seen gas go from $1.25 to $4.00 and 9mm ammo go from $20 to $32. Why do I have to love driving fast and shooting guns? I am glad that I got primers for $27 at the 1500, but in a pinch $32 to scratch my trigger finger
