45 acp ammo prices?

Hi.

I have been "all over" the internet, and it looks like the supply of 45 a.c.p. FMJ is easing up...still a long way to go.

I have seen prices, not including shipping, for a box of 50 at $23.99 to 27.99.
I am not going to discuss those at higher prices.

I am new to 45 a.c.p. shooting, as I have always had 9mm, but can somebody tell me if these prices that I have quoted are still high....say higher than 2 years ago before the "shortage"?

Also, do you see the prices coming down, and if so what is your best guess?

Thanks.

I can find 45ACP in stores near me for $20 a box. Online isn't always your best bet.

Found some at my local Walmart for 100 rounds of Winchester white box for $40 and change. Three box limit. Supply seems to be trickling back into the stores...

Let's not forget about that "Where is Everything?" thread down in General Discussions just yet: http://thefiringline.com/forums/showthread.php?t=521685
