Target Sports has Blazer Brass for $400 a K with free shipping......
It's good that ammo is beginning to show up but at $.40/round for 9mm……..? Even with free shipping……? I'll wait…..
I'm waiting too, but it's a good sign.
To those who keep saying "it won't go back to where it was"... if you're sad about things, keep the faith and wait. If you're trying to push the market to stay high so you can profit, give it up please.
Last April, I bought ammo from Targetsportsusa. $399.99 for 1k of 9mm... Speer Gold Dot JHP. That was 50% the going rate of pre-panic, for that ammo.
The initial panic from Covid was winding down, we were a couple days before the panic from the riots started. Targetsports was sitting on a product that wasn't moving, and was taking up space in their warehouses (and getting taxed on it being in inventory). So they ran a deal to get rid of it.
If we keep waiting, eventually these sellers will have to move what they have. Will we see premium SD rds at 40 cents apiece again, probably not any time soon. But range fodder at 20 cents, I think so. That wasn't the basement, we were seeing it all over for 16 cents a rd; 20 cents is just a good round number to sit on.
Sure, there will be some buying surges from people impatient and/or not stocked, but I still think the best move is to wait, shoot off what you have, and hold out on buying as long as possible.
