last box i bought was $40 for 50 rounds...
Yeah, it can. Sort of.
Then you can shoot 5 more rounds, to convince yourself that nothing moved, and that what you saw wasn't coincidence.
Never could quite figure out why the "3 rounds and done" sight in ever got any acclaim or traction.
No, if done properly, you don't need a lot of ammo. But you do need a lot of confidence.
Shoot the damn gun. It builds the confidence. It's why you bought it.
Right.
Like I'd drive all the range, pay for a lane, and fire 3 rounds.
Sure.
These are the times that many on here will warn people about and why everyone should have at least a year of ammo on hand. .50 223 .30+ 9mm, no primers, 115gr 9mm bullets going for .20. My gut says we are going to see this crap until spring of next year IF Trump wins. If Biden wins it may be 2022 before we get a sense of normal back.
If its not 9mm or 223/556, the price has not risen as much. 223/556 and 9mm have more than doubled. 308, 7.62x39, and other calibers have not risen nearly as much. In fact I just saw some 308 for not much more than what I paid last year. Some ammo which used to be 2x the price of 9mm, is now 20%+ less. And: I bought some non-9mm ammo recently and instead of the 3 weeks, it shipped in 24 hours. Thankfully, my portfolio is diversified. Yours should be too.
I wonder if .32 rimfire will make a comeback? I also hope .455 Webley comes back in to production.
I saw a couple of boxes of old 32 rimfire at Reddings Auction this afternoon... Didn't pay attention to what it sold for though.
Do you remember how long it took to get ammo back after Obama? It was a lot more than 2 years, and Obama didn't go around saying he was going to take everything.
Wow! Maybe i should have paid more attention. . .
