Damn CCI Blazer went up AGAIN. 9mm CCI Blazer is now $6.87 prior to tax. Ugg.

2 years ago it was $3.86, but it's been bumped up 3-4 times since then.

Six weeks ago the brass cased Blazer went to the 11.00 per box price. Fortunately places like still have ammo at the old price. Enjoy while you can.

I know price raises suck but look on the bright side. In the Northeast 6.87 is cheap.

I can't even find wolf for that cheap.

Well, the $5.86 a week or so ago was much better

Oh crap! I meant to go buy a few cases. Man, that $3.86 ammo was great, I miss it. But I miss their $3.86 223 ammo too.......

I have been forced to start reloading 9mm again. It's really not that big of a deal but when Academy had Blazer for $3.86, it was not practical to reload.

I shouldn't complain, I have 5,000+/- 9mm cases already primed so they reload pretty quick on my 550.
