I've been to gun shows in Knoxville, TN in December and January. Never saw so many primers for sale, IIRC, $30-34 depending on brand. Lots of powder.

Prices for AR magazines actually dropped $10 from the December show.

If you want to know were the ammo is going, surf some of the other gun forums. Some guys are happy to post photos of the boxes of 9mm, 45 or .223, where they cleaned out a local Wal-Mart.

Internet ammo sellers are offering ammo (many at pre-panic prices), but word spreads on gun forums and thousands of cases sell within a couple hours.

My advice: take a deep breath, don't pay outrageous prices and wait till prices come down. If you still believe it's a conspiracy, don't bother with the generic tin foil, go straight to the Reynolds Heavy Duty.
