Default Ammo Prices to Increase By Summer

The Kinetic Group and Winchester both recently said due to nitrocellulose and copper demands worldwide, the cost of ammo will be increasing by Summer. How much? They didn’t say. Copper will affect rifle and handgun ammo more than shotshells, but nitrocellulose will affect powder prices. The war in Europe is still gobbling up nitrocellulose. Artillery and tank shells use a LOT of powder. As for copper, there is a huge demand worldwide for copper wire and copper parts. So, 9mm is cheap now, buy more. As always, when you see powder, buy it. There are only two manufacturing facilities in the USA that make powder. They are almost maxed out. Are you a grasshopper or an ant?
