    Price increase

    AMMUNITION PRICE INCREASE....

    After several years of having some of the lowest priced 7.62x39 ball ammunition in Canada we are now faced with a series of events leaving us no choice but to put forth a price increase effective MAY 1st or when the current "old" inventory is sold out.

    A few words of explanation, our government supplier has increased their price to us by 22% even thought we had a lower rate contract in place, shipping costs are up 11% and last but not least the Canadian dollar is down 18% since our last contract.

    Current price of Chinese 7.62x39 (1,440 rds) is $199.oo AFTER MAY 1st it will be $229.oo

    Breaks down to a 2.1 cent/round increase.

    Not to painful when you consider .22lr has been going up 3 to 5 cents or more per round.

    Not surprising... Buy it when it's cheap and stack it deep!

    That's a fair and reasonable price increase given the circumstances

    $ 30.00 increase on a case of 1,440 rds with all the many increases you have been saddled with I surprised it's not up $ 50.00 or $ 60.00 as case .

    Your doing a Real Great Service to us Canadian shoots by keep the prices as low as you can !!

    Keep up the Excellent work John !!!!!
