[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2770608, member: 109862"] Man it’s gotten so stupid now…I’m only 31, got started handloading when I was 18. If I hadn’t then I sure wouldn’t now. I feel truly sorry for any young people (I know I’m a young person to many of you but I’m talking just starting out as adults young) who want to get into this sport. How discouraging it must be! And there’s no argument to be made that these prices are somehow proportionate to inflation, even compared to 13 years ago when I started. I could find powder then for ad low as 45 bucks Canadian. They have 4350 in stock now….I haven’t seen it cheaper than 89 a pound in Canada now. Twice as much. Minimum wage has not doubled. Nor has the economy. People just actually have so much less buying power than they did even a decade ago [/QUOTE]
