[QUOTE="Veteran, post: 2604364, member: 118038"] I was hoping primers would come down a bit as interest rates rose, and inflation peaked and went down, but in re-assessing that market, there never was 50 and 100% inflation caused by material shortage, supply chain, or energy or wage inflation. That leap from $40 to the $125 to $170 range on primers is probably a lot of it "structural" due to market consolidation and pricing power wielded by Vista Outdoors owning Federal, CCI, and Remington primers. We are gonna have to all give Ginex and some other no name brands a try, and see if we can find substitutes that still work at a fairer price. Competition as well as falling inflation are the only forces that will bring these high prices back into reason. Pillaging the market because you own all the marbles is not a good long term move...... I believe they put that young Martin Shkreli in the Husgow for buying a single drug and increasing the price 5000%. It went from $13.50 per pill to $750 per pill overnight. [/QUOTE]
