The only hope I think we have is more suppliers try supplying more
goods to provide pressure to bring prices down. However the
odds of that happening are lower these days due to the extreme difficulty
in starting a new business in the hostile environment the socialists/progressives have caused over the decades with regulation and
taxation.

So to be a Debbie Downer , that leaves you with existing makers pretty much. Unless they are going to expand a lot (again current Taxation and health care policy at the Federal level is HOSTILE to business doing so) there is little 'incentive' to get prices to lower to what we saw a year ago.

I hope I"m full of caca.
Actually, prices and availability were returning to normal levels before Newtown. I was buying primers for less than $20/K and powder for less than $20/lb.
