  • Shotgun Shells

    WTF? The prices jumped during the "ammo scare" and have not came down. Best I could do on target loads was $6 a box. I know compared to other ammo that is still cheap, but damn.

    Bought Rio target rounds at $4.50 a box between Dicks a couple weeks back . Them and Academy typically have them between $4.50-$5.00 per box.

      Yes the prices have not returned yet. In 2012 I paid $29.99 for a flat, so $3 a box roughly. Hard to say if we're seeing a slow return to a normal price, or if it's inflation.

        Retail prices from before were way lower than wholesale prices now.

          Lead is no longer being produced in the USA.

            It's just like gas prices drop 2 cents in a couple weeks but will jump 10cents at once.

              None of the lead being used in ammunition was being produced in the US to my knowledge. If this were true steel shot would be generally unaffected, which it isn't.

                Smelting plants are for lead/acid batteries and ballast. Bullet makers buy lead in big pigs/ingots, and cold swage it into shape.

                  Shot has gradually came back down some compared to a few years back. I guess I might have to dust off the presses and put them to use.

                    It's not the cost, it's the principle. Shot shells have doubled in price but because they are still cheap no one seems upset. The manufacturers won't lower prices until they see demand drop so we now get to pay double. It's like paying $40 for a box of Critical Defense.

                      Who's to say that's true? How do you know that isn't inflation, or a rise in the cost of production?
