CCI SV at Shooting Sports USA

I just bought a case (5000 rounds) from Shooting Sports USA for $485/case with free shipping.  They are selling by the brick and case.  A brick is $48.50, but shipping isn't free.

If you pay $95 for a prime membership, the ammo price is discounted and shipping is free on a smaller order.  I believe I would have saved about $38 on my order, had I been a member.  I've never ordered from this outfiit, and it would take 3 orders of this size to pay for a years membership.  It didn't seen like a particularly good deal for me.  

They have some Federal large pistol primers at $599/5000.  No small pistol.  Too rich for my blood.  

Here's a link to the CCI SV: CCI .22 SV

Targetsportsusa same thing but shipping is free.

At last I looked they also required a $95 membership for free shipping.

Free shipping is on case quantities, prime membership gives you earlier notification, a percentage off the retail price and free shipping regardless of quantity purchased.

I think he may have meant Target Sports

Good news is it shows 99+ in stock...IF thats correct it may mean things are easing up a little. That wouldnt have been there long a few months ago.

We’re holding out for the $179/case GECO again.

I have some 50ct boxes of Remington Golden bullets I recently found in the safe with a .59c Twin Fair label on them, I keep holding out for more of those!

3 days later and still 51 cases left... hopefully things are starting to normalize...

Down to 23 cases now.

I just an email saying they have LPP and SPP in stock. Insane prices but if you really really need some ....

Yeah, $599.00 per case of 5,000 is absolutely insane. I have given them business in the past, but I'll remember who really gouged and who didn't. If bullseye pistol shooting becomes a rich man's sport, competitors will stay away in droves.

I will support the price gouging protest as well.
22 only season for me.  Just accept it now.  It will probably turn out to be the best thing for our averages.
