I guess I haven't had to buy shotgun shells for a while. I'm shooting some clay pigeons this weekend and bought 4 boxes of the cheapest low-brass 20 gauge shells I could find and they were still like $6.50/box at Walmart. I thought it was only a couple of seasons ago you could get a cheap box for aroun $3.50 or so and pay about $7.00 for a good box a remington express field loads. Gone are the good ol days I guess.

What your thoughts on why shells have increased so dramatically??

Are people hoarding 20 gauge low brass??
