6.5 and 300prc is $7 per round. A person could buy ammo on this site that the guy was getting flamed for and turn around and sell it for a profit on gunbroker. Its a crazy world we are entering in to. :(

However I have been appalled to see things on this site being listed at prices 4X plus normal rates. I like to think of this site as a local community of sorts and when someone is seemingly looking to take advantage of something at the expense of the community, I am disappointed. I know I am making a list of folks I will never support or associate with!
Again - free market, as it should be - but that goes both ways and I won't support opportunists.

That's exactly what people are doing at Sportsman Warehouse. As soon as the store opens and people find out they got ammo in people are going there buying as much as they can afford and then go out and sale it. They won't let you hold or rain check ammo its a first come first serve. At least that's at the Everett store.
Most of the SW's have limits on what a customer can buy for ammo.

I know if I run into certain ammo and buy it and trade it at what bi mart prices are (never change), I expect a fair trade at bi mart prices in return, but a lot of people aren't honest on this site and that's why I don't list anything these days.

After Trump was elected i saw 223 brass case dip as low as 28c a round if purchased by the thousand. I personally shared when i found buckshot for 250 rounds for $90 TYD... When you can buy new at or less than reloading price how can you not stock up?
I learned my lesson Im just saddened to know many of you have been through more than 1 of these shortages and didnt learn anything.

Those in or prior military will understand PPPP on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part.
After all you had 4 years to read the writing on the walls but failed to read it.
Yes I will admit prices for brass are ridiculous but of the 12K pieces of 556 brass I acquired less than 50 did I actually purchase the rest the only thing it cost me was gas to and from the range and time and effort to pick them up and prep them.

100% Agreed. I had a guy wanted $95 for 300 large rifle primers. Absolutely insane. I told him that he was part of the problem. That being said, it is his right to capitalize on them. I choose not to. I sold a guy 250 rounds of 9mm ammo for .30/rd because he wanted it and I had it, but no way was I going to gouge him 2-3x that. Being good to people goes around, so does the opposite.

I have paid high prices for ammo in the past. I justified it by wanting to get in some serious range time. I honestly did not think prices would normalize again after 2016.
Now I feel the same, I do not think the ammo market would have recovered for at least two more years, even if Trump had won.
Now with Biden at the helm, I do not see any for of recovery until 2014 at the earliest.
I believe we are in for a rough few years.
If Biden does half of what he has said he would, the firearms industry will be in chaos again worse the the Obama years.
So to replenish any stash that gets shot, is going to be at a ridicules premium.

It's way more fun to leave them on. I recently sold some large pistol primers to a guy for $4/100, and he got a big kick out of the fact that I tripled my investment. The original price sticker was for $1.29.

I hear manufacturers say that they are producing as much product as possible. If so, where the hell is it...powder, primers, bullets? It seems that supply is getting worse every week. Gun manufacturers too. It’s so weird. It seems that in a couple weeks the gun stores/counters will have to close.7 million new gun owners is a big part, hoarding is a bigger part.

I have friends who have scored on primers at various places like 3forks and slortsmans. Buddy down in boise showed up at his local sportsmans on Monday to a FULLY stocked primer shelf. Said it was a feeding frenzy and they were all gone in minutes. I just can't ever find em online or im not fast enough and yakima is worthless for finding any reloading supplies.Primers won’t come back until ammo supply is caught back up.

I say why not do something about it, but sitting here it’s tough to think of a good way to combat it and not have the place turn into something it’s not. With the amount of frustration going around on this subject, maybe others have good ideas? Or just let it run it’s course. Good people will continue to help eachother out and eventually the dbags will leave until the next oppurtunity to gouge people comes along.

I thought about making a thread saying something to the effect of “take your price gouging prices elsewhere” but we talked it out and the truth of the matter is there’s no way to enforce anything in a situation like this. Maybe we have a rule like 20 posts before you have access to the classifieds or something like that but for now, I hope people are just decent about things and will leave it at that. Some people won’t. Hopefully those folks get the idea on their own.
One of the shooting competition boards I belong to has a 50 post rule... keeps guys from doing it all in one day,
I don't care about the gouging as much as the guys who come here specifically to do it and have zero intention of contributing to the board.
Post by: Bowhunter3 on January 23, 2021, 10:31:10 AM
I'm not a gouger, and I also won't pay gouger prices, so if somebody wants four times the price I'll just scroll by, its pretty simple. Stop complaining and just wait for a fair price.
Could have scrolled past this one without complaining too :tup:

Some people won’t. Hopefully those folks get the idea on their own.
Yep lots of good folks here helping eachother out. That’s what matters in the end.

:tup:I'm not a gouger, and I also won't pay gouger prices, so if somebody wants four times the price I'll just scroll by, its pretty simple. Stop complaining and just wait for a fair price.
Could have scrolled past this one without complaining too :tup:

Just scroll by if it’s too much to pay or do like many have done here offer yours up for a better price or trades.

It’s only gouging if someone pays that price and they feel gouged.

I think it's only gouging if it's for something you have to buy - you pretty much have no choice other than pay the high price. So, if gas stations all doubled their price when people had to evacuate a fire or other emergency that would be gouging.
Otherwise, it's a choice whether you buy it or not and up to the individual.

I have brand new custom rifle. I have to shoot 100 rounds through it to get it to settle in. Bought 60 rounds from midway they had a three box limit. $63 a box. Next week ordered 3 more, $68 a box. Checked the next week and it was $74 a box and today it is $85.Or when a person purchasing pull down bullets at $ 94.00 per 1K one month and next month they cost $135.00 per 1 K. To me that is a little above supply and demand

From what I heard from a distributor... there has been a "across the board" price increase at the 1st of the year that affected ammo.... that's part of it (small part anyway).

The good news is once I shoot this stuff I will reload the brass. If it weren’t for some great members on this forum I would be screwed. Luckily I was able to find cci250’s from one member and h1000 from another. Midway had the Berger 210 vld’sI have brand new custom rifle. I have to shoot 100 rounds through it to get it to settle in.

That's awesome.... sounds like you are set.... you bought dies yet? The Redding Competition have worked well for my rifle.
