i see on here that some of you guys say you can still get blazer for 11.97 or the 9$ price, if so GO BUY SOME!! BUY ALL YOU CAN! Its only a matter of time before they run the price up to 14.88 and beyond and you be doing like the rest of us, kicking ourselves for not getting more!

if i could find some BB for 11.97 i would buy a pile of it, for 9$, i would buy every round i could get my hands on.

just a friendly heads up. get it while the gettin's good.

local wallyworld jacked 9mm BB from 7.47 box of 50 to 8.97 box of 50. wwb box of 50 is 8.47.. box of 100 wwb is 15.47 or whatever (same price)

.45 bb is 14.88 already although the clerk said they will probably be 16.97 by end of week (box of 50)

Yeah, I saw this last night. I'm so pissed. There's absolutely no reason whatsoever for a 25% price increase. This is absolute bullsh!t.

It's all about supply and demand. As long as we walk in the store and keep buying them out, they'll keep upping the price.

But a big part of it is .......... the cost of metals cycles approximately every 4 years. When coupled with the demand that Iraq/Afghanistan places on the market, prices are bound to go up. If no one bought (stock-piled) ammo (including the Gov.) the price in the stores would have went up, but not as signifigantly as it has.

Thats why i'm stocking up on .357 Sig and will be stocking up on my 9mm soon. And god help us if the dems get the white house, prices will go through the roof.

Yep, price just went up to $14.88/50 for BB .45 at my local Wally World. I've been buying it at 11.97 for the last six months. Got a nice reserve built up until I start reloading

i agree...its total BS. I was at walmart buying ammo the day it went up...i told him i wanted 2 boxes of BB .45, he said he was about to mark it up from 11.97 to 14.97 after i bought it. i was smart enough to turn my 2 boxes into 10 boxes.....

is it time to reload?

Metal prices are at a 4 year high. Just the price of materials is going to jump ammunition. Expect to see more price increases. It is a good time to sell off any junk brass, lead or other scrap metal you have lying around.

Well it happened here too. BB was at 11.97 bx/50 and now 14.88. The other thing that ticked me off was they raised Rem .223 from 6.33 to 7.88 two weeks ago and the guy who is always there said to hang on cause its going up again. Probably already has
