Default Powder Prices Are Increasing

Supply is there but prices seem to have gone up about 10% since last October when I last bought powder online. Ammo prices seem to stabilized. I cannot find any news why powder price are spiking that much.

Noticed that. It caused me to buy some Shooters World powder to try. Price wasn't not bad for it compared to others.

Really? OP, have you been living under a rock somewhere for the last 2-1/2 yrs or so??????? Or are you that totally disconnected from the socio-economic/political events in the United States, and the phucked up activity of our potato in chief?????????

Also, all the sympathetic poster here...... Do none of you understand just how far and deep the "fingers" of politically induced inflation reach????? And how it affects the price of your precious powder?????

I can easily "man-splain" the current economic situation to any with the ballz to admit their ignorance...... AND splain to you why you should be GRATEFUL that it is only 10% or so.....

C'mon.... I'm waiting....

Tcm powder was on sale at midway a few months ago. $18 a pound, $92 for 5 pounds. I mean, I had to. Now I put that chit on everything, my cereal, in my coffee.

I freely admit, I do not suffer Ignorance nor Stupidity well. And the OP, and sympathetic whiney posters in this thread/forum have provided exemplary examples of both....

Bitter?? You bet your sweet azz I am../// And I propose: had U or any other poster in this NET been dealt a similar ETERNAL schitt sandwich that I, My SON, Wife, and family have been chewing on for the last 3-1/2 years, You would be BITTER too!

Here are some hints... Google:
-Shooting
-Top Golf
-San Antonio
-Matt Davis

again....

Thanks for that link. I'm good on powder supplies for now, but their pistol pull down powders seem like a relatively affordable way to make plinking rounds. It would have been nice if it had a "similar to XXX powder" note, but the charge weights of what they pulled from is a workable starting point.

I try to purchase powder and primers in person if the supply is available. I do order bulk online to make the haz-mat charge worth it.
If you order powder from online sources, I just got an email today from Everglades (www.evergladesammo.com). I did not open it yet, but it had an offer for 30% off all reloading powder.
I just did a quick look they do seem to have a lot of options in stock at this time.
Unfortunately, I think that price hikes on any item firearm/ammo related or not is a part of the times, and are probably not going to change.
