Ammo prices set to rise "substantially"
Vista Outdoor said it would increase prices due to unprecedented demand for and an anticipated global shortage of gunpowder.

Most idiots only read the headlineThe title makes it sound like the price is going to triple but at the bottom of the article it says 1-7%. Which any upward movement sucks, but it’s not as bad as initial expectations.
Election year coming.Another rush on stuff that is already hard to get and all because someone wants to make the headlines!
1-7% is just keeping with inflation not a "substantial" price rise.

Sorry, I'm pretty sure I got everyone beat. Just ask my wife.You might be the champion of idiots but I am in a close second
How does that work?Ukraine is looking at an ammunition shortage. Shortages of gunpowder ect we’re gonna see the effects of this in availability and prices again unfortunately.
Companies like Winchester and such are forced to stop any and all shipments and stockpile specific ammunition for the government.How does that work?
Are private sector powder companies forced to stock government supplies, including other countries?
Or is it affected by available components to manufacture the powders?
I think I'm going to contest that trophyI finally earned a trophy
Slightly, yes.So it’s now 2024. Did these hikes materialize?
You still have my shipping address?I See MIDWAY USA Has Actually Lowered Some Of Their Ammo Just A Little!
Midway is still way overpriced. There are 50 other online places to find ammo cheaper than midway. Every once in a while you find something on a crazy deal however. Probably 6/7 years ago they had 7mm STW Nosler ammo for $30 something a box , I bought a case.I See MIDWAY USA Has Actually Lowered Some Of Their Ammo Just A Little!
