What is the deal with 300 Blackout Price & Scarcity?

[zghorner]

its selling for $2/rd on gunbroker right now. I know the current market has everything inflated but holy moly 300blk seems to have been affected more than others. Seems crazy to me that a round that popular would dry up instantly and triple in value this soon...

Bought some from SGAmmo last week. $1.34/rd. Arrives tomorrow and I’ll be firing the first rounds from my new build.

Bro, you are telling me, I just got a 300blkout upper as a potential suppressor host. I just bit the bullet and got set up to reload it, even then it’s still pricey. I had no idea.

Next build will be a 350 Legend. Academy always has it in stock.

9mm and small pistol primers have also tripled in price (at least).
I think people notice it more when its a caliber they "need".

Cut and form the brass needed for 300 blackout from .223 / 5.56. It’s fairly simple to do. The price for brass then goes way down.
