not sure how all this blaming the canadian dollar is a good argument,,sure the dollar suck,,but ALL this new batch of Russian surplus showed up about the same time,,so WHY is that ONLY the 2 big importers out east have the low prices???pretty simple to deduce that all these OTHER higher priced vendors are actually buying from these 2 and reselling,,so of course they need to mark up and make a profit,,,but to constantly blaming the ####ty canadian dollar is an easy way out...if these higher priced resellers are actually bringing in their own,,they bought at the same time as the big 2,and used the same value dollar,,NOW,,if they are having to get the stuff shipped from ports here in the east,,that explains some of the higher cost too,,but in the end,,the higher price stuff will sell when the cheaper vendors are out,,,but judging by the latest shipment size,,that might be a while,,but it will sell out,,,then somebody somewhere will find another country willing to sell their surplus cheap,,something the big 2 in the east are masters at,,
lol If things stay the way they are now,we won't have problems with this type of surplus. BUT,and here is why "I hope" comes in, if they decide to completely replace these calibers with smaller ones like they did with 5.45 in AK74 then we may have issues. We'll have to switch to new commercial ammo which you can still get for $7.99 for box of 20 which is a steal compared to prices of some other calibers.
