maintenanceguy 509 Posted May 20, 2014 I've been watching gunbot.net at least once a day for months and buying ammo when a deal showed up. I've been able to get quite a bit of many different calibers at really good prices. I haven't seen a deal in at least 2 months. I haven't seen .22 in under .10/round in 2 months. It's as if all of the ammo prices have finally stabilized but at the new higher price. So up until a couple of months ago, I was still finding deals on .22. The next gun was going to be a ruger 22/45 but I'm rethinking that now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

45Doll 5,848 Posted May 21, 2014 One week before Sandy Hook the CCI Mini Mag price was 7.6 cents/round by the case, or 24% less. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mikeythumbs 1 Posted May 21, 2014 And they are the ones keeping prices where they are. Agreed but it seems to me American Eagle is always overpriced for what it is which is plinking ammo even before the ammo crunch Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
T Bill 649 Posted May 21, 2014 Only buy what you need in the near future. The big price drop is still coming. As panic buyers dry up from lack of funds the price has to drop. Once here it won't last long before going up again to settle somewhere between today's prices and the "dip" price. Sales have to continue. To many businesses rely on it.

illy 1 Posted May 21, 2014 Only buy what you need in the near future. The big price drop is still coming. As panic buyers dry up from lack of funds the price has to drop. The other calibers I regularly buy (.38, .357, .45acp & 9mm) have pretty much returned to pre panic (or maybe slightly higher) prices. 22lr is only one that's still consistently overpriced. I don't think it's panic buying or stockpiling at this point. 10¢ might be the new floor. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deerpark 83 Posted May 21, 2014 One week before Sandy Hook the CCI Mini Mag price was 7.6 cents/round by the case, or 24% less. Which is higher than the average cost for 22lr correct? Do CCI mini mags carry a premium? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
illy 1 Posted May 21, 2014 This only goes to last summer, but interesting nonetheless. http://www.slickguns.com/product/historical-ammunition-price-index-9mm-223556-22lr Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
illy 1 Posted May 21, 2014 Ugh. I just gave myself agida researching historical prices. .22lr for around 2 cents a round, 9mm for 15 cents, 45 for 21 cents. All 5-7 years ago. eff. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mikeythumbs 1 Posted May 21, 2014 Which is higher than the average cost for 22lr correct? Do CCI mini mags carry a premium? Typically the mini mags are more expensive always have been but they are a very good round many guns function best with them Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Newtonian 453 Posted May 21, 2014 I just scored a whole lot of my favorite caliber, .22lr for exactly 9 cents/round, around 9.5 cents after shipping. Armslist, baybee! The seller probably sleeps in the WalMart parking lot. Good for him. I'll sleep at home because I can't get the stuff anywhere else for a reasonable price, and I have a bad, bad habit.

raz-0 1,256 Posted May 22, 2014 I remember when rimfire central had buck a box mail in matches and you had some options. $0.10 a round is going to be a hard price to maintain. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
