    price of ammo.

    To day i bought a box of 50 aguila 30 cal. here in Ga. $21 before tax., I have not bought any in a long time, does that seem kinda high? I had already been to three gun stores with no luck and this store only had about 6 box's left. The last 2 gun show's i went to Ga. arm's was also out. lboos.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    That's pretty much true all over the ammo "spectrum". I believe the cheapest I say it was at a gunshow for @ $15.00 -- and that was about four months ago.

    I hope after the Obama scare settles down, so will the prices.

    If not, time to stock up for the revolution!

    Right now it is best to sit back and wait for your favorite ammo sellers to get ammo in. Aim had 30 carbine for about 2 days, $15.75 a box. Carbine ammo on Gunbroker has been selling for $35 to $50 a box. Found some 38 special FMJ for $12.49 a box, was gone the next day. Check the sellers daily, when they get your caliber in and it is a good price, jump on it, don't wait.

    I think it'll go back down, but I bet we'll never see $10 a box carbine ammo again.

    - change it back -

    One of our forum members found 25-30 boxes at the Cabelas in Fort Worth yesterday.
    Out of desperation today I bought two boxes of Remington UMC. Marked price was $27.99 but checked out at $25.99.
    Even at $25.99 I couldn't make myself go back for the last two boxes. I got what I needed for the time being. The last two boxes are for the next guy to make the drive.
