Ammo Prices
This is an article I created, way before the gun control scare after the Newtown, Connecticut shootings. I am a law-abiding citizen who enjoys hunting and just shooting guns in a safe environment. I wrote this article to track the pricing of ammo before it started skyrocketing for fear of banning guns. Too bad I didn’t actually track any purchases before they started to skyrocket. This is a running list to keep track.
It’s ridiculous how expensive ammo has gotten.
