Randy:
Powder was hard to find also.

ANy idea what happened with bullets?  Same story, high prices low availability?

It seems odd primers are hard to find, I've noticed that the past year, thats why I tend to buy them more.  You get 1000  of them..

JimP:
Bullets went up, but not to the extent that primers did...... loaded ammo went up, but it was already high ..... when I first started shooting pistols (late 90's), $10/box of 50 of .45ACP 230gr fmj was a good sale price..... what is it now? Double that?

I started reloading .45ACP with Ranier Ballistics plated 230gr bullets .... reloads cost me about 9 or 10 cents each...  I can't do that with 9mm now, even if I bought everything in bulk.

Locally it seems like everything is still readily available with the exception of small pistol primers, but they are always tough to find. Looks like people are just buying every magazine and tacticool rifle in sight. After x-mas I plan on doing an order with my roommate for a ton of primers and probably bullets.

DaveB:
Was at Cabela's in Kearney yesterday. They had primers for around $35/1000, that's $10 more than I have been paying for it. They are running low on powder, they had no 3031, had to settle for 748. They had what I thought was plenty of ammo, and the prices were not that much higher than usual. The gun cabinets had empty holes in it and the only AR type rifles I saw were 22LR.

bkoenig, I know you meant to say 10,000 primers. I believe that is the legal limit. Could be wrong, can't find the regs any more.
