Just so you guys know, not sure If I could find the actually printing about it but, most the gun manufactures are finally catching up and starting to make more common rounds again, the prices you've seen that are astronomical were at the pricing peak. Your going to start seeing them come back down, Ive already seen places like sportsmans warehouse in puyallup have better ammunition stock and pricing reductions. I guess everyone was focused on mass producing .223 and 556 rounds.

Prices are going to be SUPER scattered all over the place though so make sure you shop around before choosing where to pick them up, unless your just in dire need then just snatch em up!

I have 180 rounds of .223 for my new AR!   :whoo: :whoo:

That's right, one hundred and eighty.  :chuckle:

Tying to sight in a scope, do some plinking and NOT buy any more until I absolutely have to.  Doing my part to calm things down.   :tup:

I'd like to say that it was at a store or ordered online. It was a personal deal and the guy wanted cash. I just couldn't pass it up. Hope not to make y'all to angry at me! :chuckle:

Cabelas had MFS .223 a couple days ago for $7.99/box of 20.  Limit 10 boxes.  There was a time when I wouldn’t shoot such crap but times have changed so I bought 10 boxes like everyone else.

I found small rifle primers today for 49.99/1000.  I decided I don’t need primers for that price though.

The ammo shortage isn’t over yet.
