My neighbor was going hunting and could not find 30-06 ammo during ammo scarcity. He asked if I had any, I brought out an ammo can just full of 30-06 and he asked me where I got it and told him I stocked up before the shortage and when he tried to pay me for it I said no because they would watch my place when I had to travel for work. He showed up a few days later with a couple of boxes 556 and 9mm left over from firearms training. Now that's a good neighbor.

1st problem is going to Academy sports or sportsmen's warehouse. For the most part you can find cheaper ammo online and if you order over a certain amount, you get free shipping.

[@FitnFire]

Of course you can find cheaper ammo online. However, for someone that is in need of ammo immediately, this is a segment of what is available in my area. Prime example, the first time gun owner may want to understand what ammunition will cost (good or bad) before selecting a certain type of pistol so they have some ammo when they walk out of the store.

[@Blueknight1960]

@@FitnFire I agree but, for a 1st time buyer he/she should do a little research before buying a gun and see what is available locally. Then if the ammo for the gun they want is in stock, buy a couple boxes then order more online. I've been wanting a 50 bmg, so I did a little research found the one I wanted and before I even ordered the gun, I started buying ammo for it. The main reason for that is because there was only 1 place where I live that even sold it and yes I almost cleaned them out of it. They had 11 boxes of it and I left 3 of them on the self. My gun will be here in mid February and I already have 210 rounds for it.

Yeah, with the closing of the last American lead producer by Comrade Obama, and our govt and corporations filled with globalists who are prioritizing ammo, powder and primer sales to other countries over Americans, it's looking really bad. If the Dems steal the next election and get all three branches, then it will go completely insane as they will stock the Supreme Court, implement an Australian type gun ban after their phony court rules it will be "legal," and then Biden declares an insurrection like Lincoln did and sends in the military filled with illegals and woke soldiers to go after anyone opposed to their illegal communist revolution.

[@chrissewell1608]

I have noticed that the (9MM) Winchester White box ammo, prices have been up & down. Better brands have been cheaper lately, like the CCI Blazer brass ammo. While my Academy Sports has a good amount of ammo, the overall prices are still kinda higher than pre-Biden inflation! I have found good deals online too. I still enjoy seeing the current ammo prices and availability. Especially going into an election year, it always changes! I follow a channel in Florida, who does these too.

As of 1-12-24 i can find 22, 9mm every round on line cheap prices. 223 and 556 are way high. Some people are going to say supply and demand. And i say bullshit. All other ammo is still down, can find AR's at low prices, so the cost of those products to produce is still cheap, but the cost of 223/556 has gone up? No, it's called gouging. They know it's the most popular and the prices are being inflated to gouge the consumer.

I stocked piled when things were cheap 1-2 cents a primer and under $20 a pound for powder.

Especially when President Craps His Pants is proposing a 1000% sales tax on ammunition and firearms.

Went to a local academy yesterday before work they were out of stock on all 9mm and 40. They had a few boxes of 556 & 223. Looking through the 308 found a box of monarch 9mm in the very back so I bought it. I don’t know if this is panic buying from people or was it due to new years happy trigger time?

I think it is a collection of multiple things. It's an election year, tensions in the 2A space is getting more heightened due to continued attacks from gun-controllers, inflation, etc etc. Best thing to do now is prepare for the worst within moderation.

F J B and F Academy never liked them

Great video and great information

[@FitnFire]

Thanks for watching!

[@markhilken7026]

Glad I reload. Some of these prices are crazy !

[@FitnFire]

Thanks for watching

[@davewallace.8303]

Boy, .9mm prices there are WAY HIGHER than I’m seeing in SW Ohio! I’m able to get nearly any name brand ammo from Bass Pro from 22-27 cents a round, depending on brand. .22 seems much cheaper as well. Availability has increased in our area as well in recent months/years as well.

[@FitnFire]

Good to hear! Thanks for watching

[@jaystengel7511]

Same in wi

[@gemstatefisherman3409]

I sure am glad I live where I do. Lol I’m paying almost half of those prices. And there is no shortage of any kind.

[@RobertHamm-u7c]

With my limited income, ammo is either priced through the roof or it’s sold out. I’m having to look at reloading my own ammo, but even that’s out of my budget.

[@PlayingWithFireOutdoors]

Some prices seem reasonable, others not so. The Auto Match has dropped in quality lately, my go to is now the Aguila bulk & SSS 60 grain types.

@@PlayingWithFireOutdoors I appreciate that!!! Thanks again

[@camshaflober3691]

I miss the days of 2008 buying out pawn shops for ammo for cheeeaaapp.

[@purple169]

I Like these kinds of videos. People like to compare prices!

[@FitnFire]

Thanks!

[@Lugghandle]

I haven't seen prices that low in at least 10 years.

[@mavericknonconformist69721]

I Said goodbye to normal prices for good, the days of 9.99 Blazer brass are gone for good. My first rifle was a Savage 99 in .300 Savage, I saw a box of 20 for 69.00. Piracy.

[@FitnFire]

BIG OOF!!!

[@exodo7727]

Dang that 45acp is expensive. It’s $89.99 for 200rd box at my local shop

[@jamesorth1521]

Half that price online.

[@maceinmyeyes6915]

I just turned 21 in December of 2023, getting my firsts guns and buying ammo is just a pain

[@Jspray28]

Check out Sheels, town east. They have everything

[@FitnFire]

I was just there on Christmas Eve (bad day I know) and the week before but they only had limited selections of 556/223. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@Mark-qv4bn]

Unbelievable prices. 16 cents for 22 bullets, really? Wow. ☹️

[@leo.girardi]

Let's do what some else already does. Great opening.

[@silverhorder1969]

Remington 550 rounds of .22lr in East Tennessee was $42.97. A little higher here

[@kaw1240]

i live in east tn buy 325 round box of 22lr for 20 at walmart

[@chrissewell1608]

As we say "Buy it cheap, stack it deep"! But don't ever Panic Buy! You'll waste your money's effiecency.

[@FitnFire]

Wise words...thanks for watching!

I like this content. Please continue!

Thank you for that! Will do!

No 40 Cal?

[@JR-iy1we]

I just paid 45.99 for a box of hornady match 308bth 168gr two days ago. prices are going up.

[@FitnFire]

💯

[@dennispiert5742]

I keep hearing you say… “not too bad” and “pretty good deal”… 5.56 ammo was .30 cents/round for DECADES and now double that price or more is a “good deal”. Not in my world. I thank you for being informative but this topic is completely subjective.
