    Pre-shortage 9mm price?

    I'm new to handgun ammo. What would have been a good price for 9mm training ammo prior to this most recent shortage? I'm finding the cheapest online right now to be about .70/round. Just curious.

      $.18/rd for brass. I’m still buying brass at $.28 a couple times a week. Just not in quantity. I’ve bought steel for $.18/rd several times since this has started in 250 round packs.

        yeah $0.18/$0.19 per round.
        Been finding some at academy but it is around $0.35 per round.

          It seems like not that long ago I was buying 115gn Win white box $3 a box at gunshows.
          In reality that's probably been 10-15 years ago. Time flies when you get old.

            New pricing has increased at most places I have bought lately. Blazer brass $0.38/rd, Monarch Steel $0.35/rd. These are in 50 rd boxes. Nothing bulk lately.

            All the other guys at the gun shops are paying even more and charging in the $0.70/rd range. I have bought at that price but wasn't happy about it.

            If it settles around $0.35/rd for brass I will be able to live with that. Ill tell you the availability has been getting better.

              I was paying about .20/round for Winchester NATO 9mm or around .22 for Speer Lawman 124gr. Those prices included shipping.

                    I always remember about 1/2 the caliber size for handguns being around normal. .38/2= .19

                      Ammo will never be the same. Don't beat yourself up, the new prices are crazy. Reloading may help moving forward...

                            Cabelas had lots of 9mm at $8.99 per box of 50. (CCI)
                            Academy was slightly higher at the time.

                              I was getting cases from online dealers about six months before the craziness started at $175 delivered or $8.75 a box of brass 115gr practice ammo. I was telling officers that I work with to jump on it during the specials but they just said they would get some later.

                              Now they are wishing.......

                              I probably still have how about 40 boxes of 9 mm and about 80 20 round boxes of 223.
