    Ammo prices falling like a rock. Crypto currency skyrocketing in value. What changed?

    Nothing has really changed in the past few days. Trump is President-elect and not in a position to influence markets - or is he?

    I got an e-mail from AIM Surplus this morning with brass-cased 7.62x39 at $5.00/20. That same ammo last week was around $10.

    Buy it cheap and stack it deep(er).

          You guys should be casting your own slugs and loading your own brass by now. Rolling your own is about the only way to afford shooting that beast - especially with those 300-500 gr. bullets.

              Lot of people becoming millionaires on the crypto market right now. I'm not one of them.

              That .223 is way too high. I'm seeing it only for $9-$12 for a box of 20, which would be $45-$60 per 100. I understand brick-and-mortars have to make some profit, but man.

                I’m also seeing it much cheaper.

                      Now is not the time to be buying, ammo will sit in the warehouses till the vendors have to move it to pay bills. They will have to drop prices to get it to move & us to start buying it, or it will just sit for a longer timeframe.

                          What backs bitcoin other than a promise and a hand full of dollars?
