I've still got a couple of buckets from the last go round. Think I paid something outrageous like $69 each.
I had the chance awhile back to buy 20 buckets for 60$ each and i passed wish i bought it all.

Summer is when demand goes up. People start being outdoors more, matches really start going again, etc.
I do think Remington coming back online will help supply, though.

Yeah, Right.....
I just dropped $250 on ammo at Bass Pro.....
1000 rds. of .22....
.....and 100 rounds of 9mm
.....and 50 rounds of .38 Special
.....and 20 rounds of .308
.....oh, and 250 rounds of 12 ga. 7 1/2s.
.....and that included MDs 6% cut!!!!
I'll admit there was more ammo there than I've seen in a long time, but the prices were reasonable.

Here ya go.....
38 spl. 50 rnds. $27.99
9mm 100 rnds. 34.99
7.62 x 51mm 20 rnds. $27.99
.22 cal 1000 rnds. $59.99
Rem. Gun Club 12 ga. 250 rnds. $84.99
The only thing that was a little stiff was the 7.62 (.308)......but I've had a hankering to put a few rounds through this jewel. It was my late Dad's....
Memo to the wise.... at one time not so long ago it was cool to buy obsolete or oddball cartridges but not any longer. Savage 303, 256 Newton, .32 H&R Magnum, 375 Win, 357 Max, 284 Win or even the 30/40. Some of these were great but don't look for them on the shelf anymore.
Just the way it is.
Then again US military from the 06 on to the 5.56 will never go out of vogue nor will the 9mm or 45. Just my .02 in the next 50 years anyway. .
Well that was depressing,
One balancing perspective though is this is from the manufacturers. If demand drops sufficiently, that doesn’t mean prices won’t go down and supply up.
I agree this will be drawn out for a couple to a few years without drastic supply and demand changes. But I don’t believe it’ll be nearly as bad 12 months from now as it is right now. Availability has already been going up and prices eroding some.
