Our Cabelas in the city had a sale on 9mm ammo. Winchester 100 round packs for $26.99 Canuckbucks. Which is $13.50 per box of 50 rounds and that works out to just over $10 USD.
This is a pretty good deal since we all know ammo is going up and up plus I got free shipping.
So just wondering what you southern guys are paying for a box of 9mm?

When you can find it, it is costing as much as $40 for a box of 50. These are the highest prices I have ever seen and the inventory is very low. Luckily I am well stocked with about 2200 rounds bought before the pandemic and current shortage.

Wow that expensive but when our supply starts to run low ( and some say it is already) our prices are going to sky rocket too.
I currently have 2650 rounds of 9mm but my Chiappa M1-9mm and Beretta 92fs eats ammo real quick. This sale is over now but they usually have another ammo sale around Easter time.I might have to use my tax refund (if I get one) to get another case then.
9mm is unobtanium around here, you could offer a hundred bucks a box of fifty, maybe two hundred, but unlikely anyone is parting with it if they have it. Few are admitting they have it.
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.

I just made arrangements to pick up components for another thousand rounds of 9mm Luger. After that, I’ll be buying projectiles to load 3k 45ACP, but I can’t load it all at once-don’t have that much brass for it. As far as 9mm brass goes, I’ve got enough to load another 7k up.
That sounds like a smoking deal. Congrats... Every once in a while some lucky guy will find a deal like this. But, in general either the ammo, no matter what caliber, is either unobtainable and priced ridiculously high. Like others, I had a lot of ammo stocked up and sufficient reloading components. It always helps, however, to be a little disciplined at the range too during these times
I have seen it over a buck a round. But you will not find any in a retail store where I am. The only ammo that survives on the shelves is some of the odd caliber rifle rounds. People began buying everything, whether they had a gun to shoot it or not, planning on speculating.

Every caliber I have has more than doubled in price in a year, if I can even find it.
Except for 7.62x38r Nagant. It's pretty much the same as ever, if not even cheaper. When life gives you lemons...
That is about the only caliber I have seen in the wild lately.The LGS had an empty shelf except for 3 boxes of Nagant ammo, and a box of 25-06.

I went to Academy yesterday and all they had was 28 ga shotgun shells. Next truck in 5 days they said. I’m good anyways, just thought I’d get out and take a look

Here the buyer would say I'll take it, and then ask if they had a 28 gauge shotgun for sale.

They way things are up here just now if I wanted to be an asshole I could sell off just about every firearm I own, and round of ammo for many, many times what I paid for it with no haggling, and retire. I am not getting involved with this shit, just going to sit here and watch, pass the popcorn please.

Last gun in the store, last ammo, mushroom cloud rising in the distance, price $50,000 in gold, you have it you pay if you have no other means of defending yourself. Everyone was told to prepare, the ones that blew it off, oh well, the ones that made fun of anyone suggesting they should prepare while blowing off the suggestions, fuck 'em.
