      Looks like it's around $800 for 1000 rounds of 9mm.
      Wow! Ten months ago I got 2 cases of 9mm , with shipping I paid $150 per 1K rounds. At the time I thought I was overpaying by about .05 cents a round.

      Not surprised to see CTD pricing their .223 at $2 a round, they are one of the biggest rip off's on the 'net.

          If you ever look in a bad guy's magazine, it's a hodgepodge of mixed rounds, weights and projectiles. Unless he's a "gun guy", I wouldn't count on finding anything good off a dead gang banger.

              That's how some people roll..... their own. This was a recent CG post. Not saying it doesn't work, we're in a drought.

                  When at the range, sometimes you just need the "red-tub" to collect brass in,
                  so you dump the remainder in with the plated, if the same charge, and same weight projectiles, once the load is tested, and if they all cycle well...

                    I saw Miwall 45 Colt reloads going for $100 per box, $2 per round.

                      I imagine a lot of the high dollar buyers are people who just bought a gun for fear of the end of the world due to pandemic, etc. To them ... they need ammo, not useless money.
                      You know it's not regular shooters paying that much because we are used to normal prices and wouldn't play them. But people who just bought a Glock 19 for $1000 and have no ammo will pay that to have the ammo ... so they can store it in the closet with their Glock unused for the next 40 years.

                          I was offered some good cash for a box of 5,000 primers that I have as "extra", I almost did it, but not sure when I could replace it and if I can't replace I will eventually need it for my own stuff. The guy at the gun store was almost drooling as I walked in, he knows what I have bought in the past and was hoping I wanted to sell some primers and powder. Weird feeling walking into a store and the store owner asking if you want to sell at a good profit but until I get a crystal ball that tells me when I can replace, I am not selling, I want to shoot and not worry about running out.

                              Seems like the prices are going up , it's getting closer to $900 for 9mm FMJ 1000 rounds.
