    What I don't understand from some in the gun community;

    Sell your home for market value, more than you paid = OK
    Sell investment real estate for market value, more than you paid = OK
    Sell stocks for market value, more than you paid = OK
    Sell PM's (silver, gold, etc) for market value, more than you paid = OK
    Sell guns for market value, more than you paid = OK
    Sell your classic car for market value, more than you paid = OK

    Sell ammo or reloading components for market value, more than you paid = GOUGER.

    Folks, stock up now as much as you can afford. Weirder times are coming.

    That also stumped me too. Supply and demand applies across the board.

    In the country, hopefully.
    I like supporting physical stores but the price difference and availability of the internet is unbeatable, but I do agree that it’s not going to get much cheaper than currently
    Best of both worlds coming soon in Greenwood, keep an eye on AEAMMO.com, they're an advertiser here as well.
    Stupid fast shipping so far, but may enjoy the cash option once their storefront is open.

    I wish I could stock up. The more I buy the more I shoot. It should come down a little more, but as someone said we are always just one tragedy or one successful Democrat bill away from hard times again. I was glad to see .22lr become widely available and cheapish again. That I am able to stock up on. Before the last few years I was shooting about 30,000 rounds of 9mm a year. That fell dramatically with the trouble but recently has started ticking back up. The last case I ordered, yesterday, was .25 cpr.

    I def need to buy more boxes of 9mm when I see them. Im not biased, Ive shot brass and steel cased from almost all the 9mm's Ive owned and shot fine. Need to buy a few boxes of 30-30 when I see them for dads lever action though. I know for myself, I got into a routine of getting in and getting out when it came to going to stores just because of all the moronic people. Time to slow down and get some necessities once in a while now.

    Given the past three long years it’s always a good time to stock up on ammo and buy when there are dips in the prices to levels that are relatively reasonable given the highs of this past time period. And, finally, dire shame on the companies that continue to use the worn out excuses of the pandemic and supply chain interruptions to justify their continued price gouging. My rant for today on this topic is done!:rockwoot:

    When Covid first hit, I thought "Great, I can be off work to clean guns and go shooting"! Not! Companies couldnt keep workers employed, places closed, ranges shut down.
    My work only wanted you 7 days a week to fill in, and money was ok. Burned out after a while.
    Didn't take any unscheduled time off, gun sales and ammo were crazy.

    Should you buy ammo, if pricing is fair?
    Heck yes! Get as much as you can. Store it safely, in control temps. Shoot a little if you find time away from salt mines you work for. Im at 4 days a week, don't want anymore. Good luck!

    To answer the question is it time personally I'm still waiting for it to drop. It's been dropping steadily and it hasn't hit a bottom yet.
    So I'm still in wait and see mode. If I see a good deal I'm on it though.
