I wouldn't say the end of the world but it's the end of America as we once knew her. I don't want to even get started on this subject. It just pisses me off.[:@]

Anarchy, when the dung hits the fan, I'm running through the streets, shooting out windows, and crapping on my neighbor's lawns.

I might be wrong, but isnt it better that a nickel is actually worth nearly 7c instead of being worth less than a nickel? I know that is bad that a Canadian dollar is worth nearly that of an American dollar. Bad for us Americans at least. Another thing that you can chalk all of this up to is too much regulation. Just my 2 cents, or I guess they way that you guys are putting it is its just my 2.5 cents lol.

I, personally, think the statementabout the US becoming a 3rd world country, is a bit exaggerated, I also, called around today, and found out, that the big ammo price increase, is false. I don't know how much that means, but, at least, not everyone is saying prices will go up.

I don't know if the US is going to be a third world country, but if it is the unregulated influx of illiegal allians will be the culprit! In my part of the country they are driving down our wages and displaceing American workers at an unbleiviable rate! The effects of my bullets on deer mat not be the important issue, but the effect on saving our country may be deciding factor that is important.

Copper and Iron prices in the South are through the roof.So yes bullets made with copper and metal will go up.Every war it always happens.Just took this long with this war.

What that means is they aren't increasing their margins any. They are increasing the price to cover the costs of the materials, but still marking it up the same percentage to wholesalers/end retailers. The end retailers (who have to eat shipping charges, which is influenced by higher gas prices) may or may not change the margins, but one way or the other, if raw metals go up, and/or fuel goes up, ammo is going up with it. So is just about every other consumer product for that matter.
