Sure glad I load my own, and have components to do so.
DANG.

Scheese, that is insane. I haven't bought factory ammo in years. That and what I've been seeing lately is a shock. Very glad I'm able to handload and not even have to think about this nonsense. Completely agree with Randy here. Must think ahead.

Yeh, definitely shoot the airguns. Had to pay a big $2 more for one tin of 500 of one of my favorite pellets, lately. I can handle that. Sure beats paying those 45 auto and 45 Colt prices. That's just nuts.

I see Cheaper Than Dirt is at it again. You think they would have learned from last time. A bunch of us boycotted them for it and never went back.

Texas AG has filed a suit against Cheaper Than Dirt for price gouging. Suit states they need to give back almost $500 k for their gouging.

Just got an email from Freedom Munitions about a 2 day sale on ammo. There reman price is 29.50 a box on 9mm and there new price is 31.00 a box. Its only 4 times what I paid last time I bought 9mm ammo. I hope they dont sell any of it.

Just a thought... They have to purchase primers,powder and bullets from some vendor at some point when their supply runs low.
Who knows where they are finding primers and I'm sure the cost of those is way up there too. They just have to pass on the cost at a sane level.

Underwood Ammo has most of their ammo selection listed as sold out. So are they still trying to make ammo to fill order backlog or just out of components?

CTD, what a bunch of crooks. .... https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/brea ... e-gouging/

There is plenty of 9mm for sale, LOL .... https://www.gunbroker.com/item/887159938

So I guess CTD is not the only crooked outfit.

Wasn't around for last ammo drought/ shortage. Joined the gun club 2017/ reloading club in 2018. Only heard how they treated their customers badly and their at it again. I won't do any business with them, I try to give my range/gun shop as much business as possible. Merry Christmas to all.

Over the last 3 to 4 years I found only 1 good thing about CTD. They have a zip code checker ,needed for New Jersey ammo purchases and let's you see if they will ship to your state. I never bought from them because of gouging stories from before the pandemic.
