Are you guys paying this much?

I was just looking for 25 caliber bullets.
Precision Reloading is asking $73 for 110gr Hornady Interbonds.
So to me $70 for Bergers isn't unrealistic.

I also wonder how these reloading places are still in business with no supplies.
I mean if your business is selling stuff, kinda hard when there's no stuff to sell.
A LOT MORE money, goes into making, Interbonds than, a regular, cup / core, Match grade, Berger Bullet.
The IB's are,.. the better buy for, a Hunting Bullet.
And,. Midway, is the LAST Place I will ever look for, Bullets or,.. ANYTHING ELSE, now !
 
About 5-6 years ago, a guy popped up here selling Sierra bullets in bulk for ~$180/1000. Luckily, my father’s and grandfather’s lectures drove me to buy heavy. I bought what I thought was a “lifetime supply”. After some back and forth negotiating, I got a 10% discount on 30,000 bullets. I’m good!
good call. I bought enough primers, bullets cases, loaded ammo and powder in last 5 -7 years ago to last me a lifetime. It doesn't go bad. Very glad I did, just lucky.
Of course, I'm 63 :)
 
I didn't know that golf was cheap.
$2000 for a year of unlimited golf, I live on the golf course so I don't have to rent a cart, this course is a PGA qualifier course so pretty nice place to play, frustrating sometimes (like shooting) and I don't buy a lot of golf balls, I used to have a 1.6 index and will take a while to get back there. Just another test of reading the wind.
 
I just sent an Email to Larry explaining why I will no longer support his business. Ive been a customer since 2010, no longer.
CCI 450s for $75 not including hazmat when I could get the for $45 locally. Bullet prices are NOT in line with other retailers. I won't need a thing reloading wise for 4 years minimum. And only bullets after that.
I'm the equivalent of a pebble on the beach in his world. But maybe it'll get in his shoe and he'll take notice.
 
I has nothing too do with Larry's wife needing new shoes. If you look around everything has and is going up in price of late, due to various reasons. Look at the price of fuel the last couple weeks.
Supply and demand, more than anything and the fact that many are blaming the Covid-19 for a lot of it.
 
You might get better results posting comments about your dissatisfaction on some of his YouTube videos. Thousands of people will see your comments and might join in with you shaming him....
Not my style, I'd rather just get up in his grill on a private level. Others may feel differently about his business model and that's fine. Just bugs me and I needed to vent.

Get inflation, raw materials going up, covid, etc etc etc. Good comparison on gas though. Price around here varies 20 cents a gallon, guess where I'm going?
