EVERYTHING is up… From the Comcast bill, to the Hulu and Netflix and Amazon to Gasoline to Milk and Bread and Eggs… My damned water bill has doubled and the house insurance and vehicle insurance is up 25% more this year along with Health Insurance. A better question would be, what hasn’t raised in price?!? Good Lord, even Arizona Tea that’s ALWAYS been .99 cents is up lol. Sad
Yeah, & the Fed lowering interest rates ISN’T an election year gimmick! Granted, since I’m fixin to buy a new house, I’ll take it. But unless some serious changes take place, the bottom WILL eventually fall out. And it’ll make the Great Depression look bush league by comparison when it does.
In the meantime, all I know I can do is vote, pray & keep buying ammo. I’m at the point where I now buy 1 box of ammo a week, rotating which kind each week. So this week, its 5.56mm, next week its 124 grain 9mm defensive rounds, the week after that its 12 gauge shells (also in a rotation between defensive & bird shot). Also have bought ACTUAL BOOKS like the SAS Survival Manual, the US Special Forces Survival Manual & similar books.
On the other hand, folks that are in a bind will start selling off used stuff. That’s what I’m on the lookout for! I keep buying ammo when I find deals, I’d love to stock up on powder/primers, but from what I can find, ammo is cheaper??
Because of my job, I haven’t been to a gun show in 10 years, used to be my favorite place to buy reloading supplies, I wouldn’t have a clue if that’s still a thing.
