A 50 round box of .22lr now sells for $30 US, if it can be found. Your 100 round shooting trip would cost you 50 pounds at that rate.

9mm is $50 for a box of 50.

Centerfire rifle of any kind is $40 for a box of 20.

I was paying $5 per box of 20 for 5.56 or 7.62AK before the "shortage and it is now $40 per box if you can find it.

I find myself avoiding shooting my "real guns" just to avoid drawing attention to myself by being present at the range with a substantial supply of ammo.

Most of my target practice is now done off the back porch with the air guns.

After the initial shortages caused by shipping problems due to COVID the supply of air-gun ammo has returned to normal. Most of that is now made in China, of course.

It is also cheap! My favorite supplier has a "buy three get one free" policy along with free shipping inside the U.S. with a minimum order. I can keep my cost of good quality pellets, that actually hit what you shoot at, down to $15US for 2,000 shots.

You shooters have it easy, have you seen the price of arrows
