Larry's lady needs new shoes!!

I don't get it. We are all supposed to be 2A advocates and fiscal conservatives that understand the incredible benefits of capitalism. Yet every time a price goes up on an item due to market forces, many complain like socialists.......

Nope!
All it means is that I might have to start shooting Sierra, Nosler or Hornady.

Yup, then Sierra will become like Berger.

Price of labor, materials, and handling has gone up quite a bit. At this point, when it comes to consumables, I feel lucky if I can get them at all.

If shelves were full, I'd bet upset about $70/100.

I honestly believe ol Larry has plenty of buying power to acquire goods at a reasonable price. He's marking goods up for higher profits.
Nothing wrong with that, more power to him. I wont be a customer by choice.
There's plenty of other suppliers selling the same goods that aren't taking advantage of the end user.
These folks are the ones that'll get my business.

Midway's prices are about 10-15 percent more than most online dealers from what I've seen.

Perfectly fair.

If Midway is priced too high then they won't sell as much.

Got a good buy on 200 Barnes 6.5 Match Burners. Loaded them like I did the Bergers I used to shoot. Can't find a good reason to go back to the Bergers now.

 

[mensajd]

The prices of lathe turned monolithic bullets are looking more and more reasonable now!

 

[Sandstorm]

Im not a fan of Midway anyhow..he's got the worst packaging for bullets.
I was pickin em up from my driveway....the ones I could find.

 

[Minshooter]

Now out of stock, and no backorders.
Looks like his pricing matched the market.

It's over priced but everything continues to escalate in price with the new regime we now have.
I started buying bullets in larger quantities a year before the elections and am glad I did. - Product availability alone is a PITA and when you find it its 25-50% more than it was 9-12 months ago.

True custom 30 caliber Benchrest Bullets are running about 48 cents a piece. Difficult to believe that a semi-custom like Berger could garner as much.

The market for producers of components for our game is completely unpredictable. Look at price of copper and lumber. Totally an unpredictable result that impacts the price of our hobby immensely. And then there's the completely unpredictable factor of what our government will do with the 2nd amendment. I don't believe Midway or Berger is setting the price, it's our buying trend that's doing it!!

Agreed. Rising prices are the only thing that can slow the frenzy. If everyone calms down and puts their wallet back in their pocket, the shelves will fill back up and prices will drop again.

More vendors need to crank up their prices. It's insane that they haven't. This severe supply chain shock isn't good for anyone in the business, from the copper and lead suppliers, to Berger, to the distributors, to the retailers. They need to crank the price until inventory sits on the shelf for at least a few days, then the market will normalize.

Their advertising IMI 9mm for $45 a box right now...
