There were a few dozen containers in the West bend , Wisconsin Fleet Farm last weekend. Not sure where the OP lives, he didnt say . They were $12.99 plus tax. Yes,, it's 3 times what they were 4 yrs ago. However, It is still only 8 cents a shot more .. I have about 700 left. I shot my muzzleloder 1 time this fall . I loaded it , went hunting , didnt see anything, went to the range after 2 weeks to see if it would fire and it went off fine. About 3" hight at 50 yds. Now days I shoot my bow, 95% of the time I pull a trigger , an arrow goes flying. No primers or powder, or cases. If we all stopped buying the stuff , I think they will be humbled a little .
