So, I'm sure we're all happy ammo prices are finally dropping for more common stuff like 9mm, 45ACP, and 308; yet 223/5.56, 6.5CM, 30-06 are dropping much slower. Even 380 ACP has fallen; but not that much except for Aluminum.
I've bought some ammo since COVID when I got it for a "decent" covid price. Like 43c for 223, 35-38c for 9mm. Now 9mm is at 29 cents for aluminum (which is about 10 cents less than 4 months ago). So we're heading in the right direction.
However, I'm now beginning to wonder if this new pricing is what we're going to see from here out. 450 bucks for 1000 rounds of 223, 400 for cheap 380, 300 for cheap 9mm. Double whammy me thinks. The COVID run, and the fact the supply chain has struggled lack of critical components. This inflation running rampant across board, not just in ammo is causing me to wonder if this is nearing the new "normal low." And, if not the new normal low, how low do we think it's going to go? Keeping in mind these EO's Xiden keeps throwing out.
Now, I realize this question cannot be answered; because I guess if we all knew that we'd be uber rich because we could predict just how far to short stocks.
