Yeah I suppose I will have to 'bite the bullet' and pay ¢40+ per round. Things are moving fast, if hr127 passes I need to have a few thousand rounds in stock beforehand. Will check locally, thanks.
40 cents a round is great right now. I’m in CA so things are always more expensive.
Yeah I was used to 29c per rd. CA is such a beautiful state, shame the laws are so fucked. I hope Jefferson becomes the 51st state..
I live in the State of Jefferson. We’re hoping.
40c a round is cheap comparatively my dad wanted to get some .357 magnum. Its pushing 1.90 a round. I spent 600 bucks this morning buying 300 rounds.
True, but that's 40c per corrosive round. The price of 7.62x39 is cheap compared to other calibers, but not compared to 7.62 prices just a month ago when you could get a thousand non-corrosive rds for $350, and now it's $550-$600.
Probably only going to get worse from here on out. I'm glad I didn't get a revolver now only because of the price of .357 compared to .40 S&W.
Corrosive ammo is honestly not that big of a deal. The ammo itself is not corrosive. It is the potassium salts found in the primers. They are hygroscopic and absorb water from the atmosphere which can cause rusting and corrosion. Bottom line is run some ballistol down the barrel and get over it. Most guns lived on a diet of the corrosive stuff for their whole lives and they are fine.
Yeah i thankfully bought a bunch of ammo for all my guns in February last year anticipating this year would be insane. 9mm, .223, .308, .22lr, 12ga prices for everything are crazy right now if you can even find it in stock
