I see some ammo availability is starting to get better locally, including reloading components such as powders, small rifle and large pistol primers.
Unfortunately, prices seem to vary. I see one store actually DROPPED their prices on .223 ammo by a couple of bucks a box, while most everything else has
either stayed the same or INCREASED!
The same store had about 30 boxes of 12ga slugs, two packs of 10boxes taped together for $32 a couple of weeks ago...I hemmed and hawed over buying at least one 10 pack...Today I went in and they had UNTAPED them and marked them UP to $5 per 5rd box!
And I know for a fact these boxes have been in the store long
enough that they were selling them for $1.99 a box originally. Nothing like a 250% increase!
