Prices are at a point where I believe you should buy what you can and then keep your eyes open and buy what you can find. This holds true with components for reloading also. Do I like paying 8 cents for primers, NO but I buy what I can when I can.
I say time to stack it deep.

I simply refuse to buy ammo. Besides, now in NY you have to go thru a NICS just to buy rimfire. I'll stock up and never have to have the government give me permission,
9 and 5.56 are the hot items. Few at my club reload so once fired brass availability has given me TWO lifetime supplies.
Yeah, primers are 8 cents. Sucks to be us. On the other hand small rifle and pistol seem to be the 2 flavors most produced, so availability (NOW) is not an issue.
Boolits for 9 are free. My supply of lead is huge and my Winter hobby is casting. 55 grain FMJ .223 prices are reasonable. I won't use lead in a gas fired rifle.
Reloading is ALWAYS a better deal.
