“TIP: Smart shooters buy bigger lots for more consistent results. That is $0.609 each a round.”
Tip, smart shooters don’t pay sixty cents a round for 22LR!
$0.609 cents each for any type of .22, .223/5.56, .380, .9mm, .30,, 7.62,39 or 7.62/3.08 is pure INSANITY, PERIOD!!!
The prices will drop when the buying stops, it’s that simple. As long as “that sucker” continues to be born every day the industry will continue to take advantage of them.
Your first point was correct.
Exactly one year ago in 2019, I bought a 2500 round brick of .22 LR for .03¢ a round. Now it’s 60 cents. I’m no Einstein, but I believe the price of .22 shells increased in one year by 2000%.
I was paying close to this price for a 500 round brick of match .22 not long ago.
So who’s making all the money with this price gouging? Manufacturer, wholesaler or retailer?
It’s not gouging.
I’ll pick “D”. All of the above.
What do you think should be done?
What can be done? Supply and demand…
That’s my point. I think we are in agreement.
Good grief-I thought this was a typo and it was for 500 rounds!
This can’t be right…..60 cents a round?
I was buying 5.56 for 30 cents a round, last year.
Insane.
I’ve been telling folks, for the past decade, to invest in lead. Said it’ll be worth it, and it is.
I have been casting bullets for over forty years. I have around twenty or so sets of molds. In my garage I have over 600 one pound ingots of wheel weight lead. Plus around 800 ingots of lead sheeting or pure lead. I started getting serious about acquiring lead about twenty years ago. My Father in law who lives in a large town in western Oklahoma would go around and collect lead from his buddies and then when I and the wife came to town that lead would come home with me. It has allowed me to shoot for less… Read more »
Twice the price of the regular price of 5.56…is it that good; or maybe wait until the gouging stops?
It’s not gouging.
After the shortage caused by the Barney Franks – Chris Dodd
engineered economic collapse 0f 2008, CCI mini-mags in 100
round packs, came back at the elevated cost of aprx. $8.47
(up from sub $7.00 per 100). Today’s prices could be justified
if ammo was supplied with certification of silver content to meet
anti-lead standards.
Current prices are the result of the combined effects of supply constraints and a rapid increase in demand for a product that is produced by a capital-intensive industry that understands the extreme variations in demand, over time, for their product.
They also understand things like the cost of capital, the cost of hiring/training people, the cost of terminating people during times of decreased demand, and their dependence on components made by other companies that are facing similar market issues.
You offer an astute economic synopsis.
I simply noted my observation, and tried
to give a humorous jab.
“All we can do is point out a few deals when we find them to help you save $$.” LOL!!
It’s not price gouging.
They can down vote you all they want, you are correct.
Thank you. It’s possible some don’t understand my point. I would prefer that ammo was inexpensive and plentiful. That’s not possible given the current supply constraints and the various issues driving up demand. If people want the manufacturers to sell at a lower price, that won’t result in lower prices to the consumer. If they want the government to step in and set price controls and rationing, that won’t work, but it will result in a more powerful, more expensive, and more corrupt government. We just need to allow the system (the best ever devised) to work. Either capacity will… Read more »
@JSNMGC, I respectfully disagree. If I am correct, there are actually laws in place to stop such inflationary practices in situations such as communities that are hit by hurricanes and other natural disasters. I don’t see how this is different. I know there is a fine line between price gouging (inflating prices multiples of the previous price) and the law of supply and demand. Maybe price gouging is just the upper end of that law, but either way, when you look at the ammo companies output and their income it is apparent they are doing more than passing on increased… Read more »
Price gouging is a violation of specific government orders in times of crisis. It’s a legal term used in conjunction with government interference with the free market. No such order is in place regulating ammunition pricing and I hope there never is. On this board people are constantly speaking out against socialism/communism and I agree. However, many don’t understand that government intervention in setting pricing and rationing goods is a main component of socialism/communism and other forms of totalitarianism. I do not want a government that is so big and powerful it can dictate pricing and quantities sold. Capitalism has… Read more »
Also, if the manufacturers sold at a lower price to wholesalers/distributors, do you think that would result in lower prices to the consumer?
