Default Local gun shows & ammo prices

I'm assuming it's all horrible, but did want to ask if people are seeing any decent prices?

Thanks.

At the last one I bought LAX reloads of 9mm, 1000 rounds for $250 and the the ammo looks like its never even been fired. .223 was 500rds for $350.

I didn't wait in the 6 hour line for wholesale ammo though.

Ya if there is descent pricing its gone in minutes and u have to wait for hours. I ordered ammo 5 months ago for 5.56 and have to wait probably another 3-4 months. And I don't buy ammo to save I shoot it if I have it cause I love going shooting and am passionate about it. I don't even go to the O.C. Gun shows anymore there all marked up or sold out and the place is packed, you can hardly move.

Where would you go instead? Wouldn't they all be like that now?

Thanks.
Some wealthy entrepreneurs need to start up a "People's Only" Ammo Depot. Also open more ranges indoors and out.
I just got back from the oc gs, and could have paid the same or less online
Gas , Parking and entry cost more than shipping.
People selling old guns for a premium what a joke, no deals
Unless you want to mingle and catch the latest virus, I would look around the net
Every so often you find a shop that has deals or infrequently visited shops with surplus.
I'm not feeding the frenzy. I just grab a little here and there to keep what I need.
Doing a lot of dry practice at home.
Lots of targets on the news and outdoors channels. I even help the "rifleman " out sometimes on encore west
