Default Ammo prices

Thought the jump in steel shot shells was bad last year

I was told today from one of the largest wholesale supplyers
That they are expecting a 50 -60% increase in ammo acrost the board by the end of season

So IMO if I was you
Figure out what you think you will need and buy it now

Good idea! Thanks for posting. I think I'll pick up some Black Cloud and Kent Fasteel tomorrow!

I just bought two cases from Rogers. I should be good to go on ammo for this season, and some left for next season.

I just got back from Sportsmans warehouse. Kent Faststeel has gone up $7 dollars a box since last season. BlackCloud only went up a couiple, but was already higher than the rest. I'm gonna start practicing with my sling shot!

I do a bit. Just loaded up a little more than 9 boxes of 28 ga shells with Nice Shot.

I guess I should really say that I have a lifetime supply of hunting ammo. Though I will still buy all I can when I find a good deal. I also still buy a fair amount of play around ammo but for waterfowl, big game and small I'm set for a good 30 years at least and that should do me quite well.
