RudyVey Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Just ordered some!! Checking daily a few times, I thought they must show up soon. And they did this afternoon. Wonder how long they last... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zzt Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Well, that is another firm I won't be buying from again. Too bad. I liked their bullets. A 25% increase in price for 2000. No wonder so many are switching to poly coated. Fortunately there are still a few firms selling bullets at pre-Covid pricing, and that's where I'm buying now as stuff becomes available. They are also the firms I'll continue buying from after the shortage is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't have wanted more since their price is far inferior to MG now after the recent price hike. Picked some up have for self-defense loads since the MG's are a target specific round and don't have optimal expansion characteristics.

The demand has driven up raw material cost significantly so there was no way prices weren’t going to increase.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn't noticed, as I always buy in whatever increment necessary to achieve the lowest cost-per-round figure, which is 3750 rounds when it comes to MG 124gr 9mm JHP's. MG has a best-achievable-price of $0.096 CPR -vs- PD's best-achievable-price of $0.11175 CPR. I don't blame PD for a instituting a price increase; they've been (and still are) selling out within minutes and cannot even come close to keeping up with demand—businesses exist to make money. As a consumer though, I'm obviously not going to want to pay more for a product at one place if an equivalent product is available elsewhere for less.
