If reloading anything small pistol, you're going to have a tough time finding those primers unless you decide to substitute the primers for small rifle primers (which can be done).
A buddy of mine, a newly minted LTC who just purchased his first g, reported 9mm in stock at a LGS, said they had quite a bit. Asked him how much he bought....you guessed it...two boxes.
Yes, the price slowed it down but it's sold out now. It's a defense round so you'd expect it to be more expensive but the prices are crazy now even for FMJ.Still there 99+ but .....$1.25/ round??!!
Any guess how long these prices will be around/will they continue to go up?
Here’s another answer:Any guess how long these prices will be around/will they continue to go up?
Here’s another answer:
If you look at the backlog for the ammunition manufacturers, many of them are reporting 1+ year backlogs. That means they see a lot of pent-up demand out there.
As is true of all the most recent ammo shortages, this one is purely demand driven, so what you’re really trying to predict is when will demand drop to more “normal” levels. This is because it is highly unlikely the manufacturers will add capacity any time soon. The uncertainty of the market will keep them from investing in new capacity. If the Dem’s win, there is the risk of increased gun control limiting the market and if the Repub’s win there is the risk of another large drop in demand. So I don’t expect any increase on the supply side in the near future.
So when will demand drop back to “normal"? To quote John Mulaney “Who’s to say”. It certainly won’t happen before the election, and even if it happens right after, the backlogs indicates we are still looking at a minimum of another year of decreased ammo availability which equals increased prices.
My guess is they'll stay this high way beyond a 13-Seat SCOTUS...Any guess how long these prices will be around/will they continue to go up?
I was buying as much 9mm as i could afford up through about 34 cpr, then after that, it spiked badly and much of the supply disappeared. Now I'm not buying anything outside of birdshot and oddball calibers that haven't gotten totally f***ed, like 357 sig and 10mm.Back in April/May I recall some folks were getting all "f*** that" at .24¢ a round, guessing some of those opinions have probably changed since then.

My feeling is that demand is pretty maxed out right now. It’s obviously extreme high, but unless we start to see zombies in the streets, it’s hard to believe it’s going to go up much more even with the election.
And even now, it’s available just very, very expensive
At first I thought this was a joke but I crunched the numbers and you were being seriousYou could basically buy an ak and 2 cases of x39 for the price of 2 cases of 5.56
