I have also noticed the cost of metals. With China and India both having emerging economies and over one billion people each, they have driven up the price of all petroleum products and metals as they build more buildings and houses, drive more cars, etc.

Watch for the cost of autos and guns to go up a lot as they use a lot of steel and aluminum, the price of ammo and components will continue to rise and there is absolutely nothing you can do except get some friends together and buy bulk. Picking up range brass helps if you are willing to understand the possible concerns of split brass that may have been reloaded too many times. I've used it for years without problems and will continue to pick it up when its easy to do.

I am a dealer and I go to my local gun club and offer to buy bulk at cost to help and often we purchase over 100,000 bullets and enough powder and primers in large containers to get free freight.

It is an expensive hobby that we MUST continue or the liberal mental cases will simply price us out of business and all gun rights will dissappear because we no longer want to pay for those rights.
