About 13$ to high. But if people are willing to buy it.then it will never come down. Just many shooters quit the sport. Just priced out of the sport. |

I just used some green dot from 2019 last night. Sticker still on it at $30.29. Now it’s 34.99. I think that’s a reasonable increase especially for now. Look at the price of meat, gas, or anything else. Guess we should all stop doing everything. My health ins went up 100 bucks from last year. Go without it too? And it’s not going to come down if people stop buying at 35.00. Now the 60-75 a lb I agree. |

Extremely well said and spot on. I kicked an 8 pound keg of Green Dot not long ago and noticed the price on it was $108.xx. Those days are long gone. As are the days of $160 for a 8 pound keg of Green Dot. For decades I have purchased powder in 8 pound kegs, primers in sleeves of 5K and wads by the case. At least when they were available in those quantities.
If I can get powder at $30 a pound all in including shipping, hazmat, and sales tax I jump on it if I need it. And the $30 a pound benchmark is getting harder and harder to find.
The price of lead has skyrocketed and don't expect that to drop much either. Back when it started moving up over $9.99 a bag lots of people said if it ever hits $20 a bag that's it, they are going to quit shooting. I think of that when I am shooting with them now at least the ones still alive and shooting which is most of them. And it is well over $50 a bag all in today. At least for quality shot. |
