Looked at a loose case of bulk M855 5.56 ammo from Cheaper Than Dirt. We bought a couple cases for I think around 320 bucks per 1000 last spring. Look how much they are now!

wow, a buck a round for 5.56 ... there goes my plinking budget!

Imagine that... The free market taking advantage of a perceived impending doom... I've never seen that happen before

And here is another.

Yep, in Wal-Mart yesterday, the clerk in the gun department said he sold the last DPMS Panther Arms AR-15 on Saturday for $489.99, and they have already been advised that IF and When they get more in stock the price will be $1299.99.

yuppers I have been waiting for months for ammo in 223 cal. Here inda sticks one store had 8 ars and aks, noticed there was 2 AKS left. not bad for a part of the state that is poor.

Hell, none are to be found from any source, except for the one's Dick's pulled off of their shelves and refuse to sell. I believe their real purpose in pulling them had absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with Sandy Hook, but more to do with speculation of the huge profit margins to be made when they decide to release their inventory!
