Hey guys, I just got back from Bi-Mart and was looking for prices on ammo. I asked the guy about some 9x18 and he said he could not get it because of the heavt tax that he has to pay on anything that is made in a foreign country. I think he said something about $47.00 per 1000 on 9x18. I heard this was being talked about, but I did not know that it was already established. If thats the case I am gonna take a loan out at the bank and buy all I can get my hands on!!!!! :( :(

Well Norm, I was really thinking about it, this just might make up my mind. However I was digging on line and I found some barnall for $168 per k on 9 x18 95gr. That makes a little more sense. I haven't had to buy ammo in a while and haven't been paying to much attention to prices. Knowing that lead and brass going up, but did not know that there was a "taraff" on some ammo. Seems like a poke in the eye to me.
