Managerial Accounting 101:

Business do not sell products base on the their cost of that product, but based on the cost of replacing that product that is sold.

Inventory: Base your sales on what it will cost to replace inventory.

Its simple Supply and Demand.

Another way I look at it as a consumer. What it cost now vs what it cost when I started reloading.

I was talking to my old shooting partner from when I first got into competition.

We were discussing spending .80 - 1.00 per hundred primers compared to spending $4 plus today. Sounds like a big jump until I figured out I can afford $4 primers better today then I could $1 primers way back then.

Hang in there, we can ride this out.
