I just got a E-mail from CIA they have a new price on the Bulg 762X54R HB get this $107.87
per ____ 600 rd____ case. That is the highest price I have ever seen for surplus 762X54R

 

[SlimTim]

I didn't think Century had any of the Bulgarian HB, thought it was all LB? Good news in that one respect if they do have it.

54R

It will sell. I won't buy any at that price, but guarantee it'll sell. Ammo keeps spiraling up. It costs this much in the early nineties, and then the price went on average to 10c a round. Now it seems like 20c for 54R surplus will be the average, (I hope). Reloading is also gone up quite a bit, unfortunately.

I fixed it up slimtim I was just piss at that high price.

Wideners has the HB bulg 762X54R for $90 per 600 rds.

 

[YzzSzz]

Add in the extra shipping at Wideners and it costs about the same...

 

[SlimTim]

Wideners not only hits me with shipping, but the highest sales tax rate in the nation too!

107.87 + 12.50 (shipping) =120.37/600 = .20 cents a round. They can sell it to whoever will buy it but it won't be me for .20 cents a round.

I am in good shape, so it does not effect me. If I was shooting non NFA weapons, then ammo that costs $4 per box of 20 when comparing to commercial ammo is still a good buy in my book. I would go a head and buy for what I want to shoot for a couple of years. If prices go back down, then I would make a big buy. If prices double again, then you are protected for a while. If we see 30 to 40 cent surplus, then I may have to sell my Maxim and all the ammo. Hopefully neither will happen.
Just another opinion.

Wow

I just saw that email. They have got to be kidding!

 

[1 EYE]

Maybe its a new shippment and they come with a gold bullet..They wouldent sell us that old bulg stuff with all the splits. Or would they?

 

[Franz 1796]

Maybe this means they are not expecting any new shipments to arrive in the near future.

 

[Bucko]

Maybe this means they are not expecting any new shipments to arrive in the near future.

Or there is a bunch coming in and they are trying to make as much money as they can before the market gets flooded! We can dream can't we.

I laughed and deleted it.

I have plenty of tins of 7.52X54.

The local shops do too.

The shortage is only online.

 

[ROB J]

I bought around 30 case on the hunch they were going to put the screws to the last good priced ammo. I hate to say I was right but

Only things I can think of is either more came off the boat, they missed a pallet or two of it before, or they held back on some of it so they could make more money on it.

 

[oneshotman]

I think they have had it all along They seen the price going up and held it back to drive up the price.
