I needed some trap loads and was walking by the empty ammo shelves in Walmart and saw these sitting on the side.  The girl told me she just put them out.  Great, well now they are all gone.
22.76 a box of 100.  Not a horrible price these days.

I just found 5 of them.  I have next to 0 of those after I "donated" 10 cases to our sporting clay group.  Was nice to find some more and I'll be happy go go shoot off 100 this weekend.

You need a completed round bin!

ETA:  I see what you said in the other posts.  To each their own.  

When I first started on my 550 I did the same.  Now I just plunk them all in a case gauge when I'm done.  I feel like it accomplishes the same but faster.

Sure, I had to be the guy who bought 3 guns in 2 new calibers.

It sucks paying .40cpr for 7.62x54R, but at least it's plentiful. And thats with idiots trying to push it to $1pr. Average is around .55cpr.

I was just wondering about the yearly production rates and where those numbers are today

There are plenty of raw resources for component/ammunition production.

Every month ammo production produces a consistent number, is there a graph for 2020?

Wrong
and Wrong.

Three shifts, primer shortage, and record production levels. Doesn’t remotely touch the demand.

Thanks for the heads up, they look to have that Hammer Down 45-70 in stock that I've been wanting to try.

They even have a promo for free standard 15-20 day shipping

ETA: no 9mm, .45 ACP, .40 S&W, 10mm, 30-30, .35 Rem, or .357 mag though.

They do have .357 Sig FMJ in stock @ $1.18/round

ETA2: They do have .308 GMM 168gr @ $36.99/box with a 10 box limit.

Everything is sold out here now.  We had ammo on shelves until the past week or two.  Everything is gone now.  People are paying crazy prices for everything too.

I might sell my factory 9mm FMJ stuff.  I have enough to reload a ton.

Very few people are selling good OFB right now.

I would place an order with Starline and wait it out. Their brass is outstanding.

I was thinking of trading some in at an LGS. I think the way things are, it would be reasonable to allow the buyer to make 20 points on the resale. I have raw, and prepped. The 308/6.5 cm prepped is neck sized/fire formed for my sticks, so I guess I would call it raw anyway.

The gun racks are full at my LGS.  The ammo is there at retarded prices.  A case of winchester 556 for $999.  $40 for a box of reman 9mm range ammo.

And for at least the foreseeable future, that mantra has been replaced with "buy extremely high and in quantities so low it isn't even deserving of being described as a stack".

For the people who didn't lay back some ammo before the current crisis (because they were complacent or maybe just broke), they probably aren't going to be doing much shooting in the next year. Any ammo being found/bought will be in smaller quantities for all but the wealthy. And it will be reserved for serious purposes, not for plinking or general blasting.

Shit, I had a few thousand of 5.56 and 7.62 before this started and I'm already starting to reach "I don't want to use any more of this in case of war" levels. I was hoping things would bounce back at least a bit around 6 months after COVID. Nope, it just got worse...

I just quit my part time job at a large gun store. Too much pressure - people standing in line outside in the cold then having to wait to get to a sales rep then have to pay the prices plus limits on what's there don't make the best customers to deal with. They are scared. Its really sad to see. Prices be damned. They aren't leaving without something that shoots and even if its 25 rounds for $40 they'll buy it. Not going to get any better.

Let me see, where did I put my Mini Mags?  I better start selling!
The person who "won" the auction, as I suspected before even looking, had less than 5 feedbacks, so probably doesn't know any better.  But the one who came in second had 184 feedbacks.

2nd place is the one that sets the price.
And I thought it was expensive when I was giving Academy $5.99 a box.
