I think the price of ammo is definitely the most important issue facing the nation. Everyone I know is talking about it. Even people who have lost their house and jobs aren't all that concerned if they can just get cheap ammo.

If we all shoot like Shotgun Dick Cheney and wound one of our fellow hunters, well certainly we'd run out of ammo. Stay the course, right GW???

So you guys discount supply and demand ? You think the fact that copper in expensive, everyone is hoarding ammo, and the government is buying up most of the 5.56, 7.62 and 9mm the American manufactures produce dosen't translate to high demand and high prices? There is no ammo tax proposal right now that has a chance of passing.

Well, you got one part of the equation incorrect, the price of copper is down to floor levels just like most other scrap prices.

Well, at the rate I shoot anymore, and with all the powder, primers, and bullets I stockpilled during Bill Klintons reign, I think I have enough to last me till I am about 120. Never thought I would say " Thank you Mr. Klinton"!

The way the goverment is scrambling to charge more for this and more for that, it reminds me of a fellow who owned a business that was going bankrupt. Actually, its scary to see the connections between the two. They both spent excessively and then suddenly realized that they were in financial trouble. The businessman's response to the situation was to raise his already high prices in an attempt to make more income. The result was disastrous and his business failed completely when his outrageous price hikes drove away his customers to the competition.

I'll have to check the prices. I bought a box of 250 rounds of .45 ACP at Scheels a couple of weeks ago for about $95.

A couple of days later, I stopped back and bought a couple boxes each of .357 mags and .30-.30's. They were sold out of the boxes of 250 .45's.

I should get some more .44 mags. I have seen some good deals on 9mm pistol ammo, for what it's worth.
