| I actually think the same thing as you and find myself just as surprised. But no, .38 is in fact ridiculously priced. It's still reasonably inexpensive to reload, but (ETA: not!) for the $4.15 a box or so when I started reloading it. | ||||||

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Considering I have 2 revolvers left, and haven't shot either one in a long time, adding another just doesn't make sense. (Fondling and drooling no longer seem as attractive activities as they once were.   )
Speaking of ammo, it bothers me that .38 Special these days is expensive when it used to be cheaper than most other center fire cartridges. I find it hard to believe that demand is down considering all the new lightweight snubbies that Ruger, Taurus and Smith have introduced. Harvey |
For a few years the caliber was dying off, IMO, but with all the recent activity I would have thought a boomlet was happening. Any thoughts?
