About 12 cents/bullet (55g FMJ) seems average right now. In 2016, my first 2000 were 7.5 cents/bullet (shipped).

Thanks for posting this. I just picked up 1,000.
Man, Everglades is smoking some good stuff. I know they've never been one of the cheapest out there, but their price jacking on reloading components is getting insane. If they had primers I'd consider their 25-50% premium over the other big primer sellers wouldn't be that insane. But looking at their bullets, its a premium on almost everyone out there, with everyone having stock. Same with their brass. Heck, their range pickup brass is like 15-20c a case for common handgun cases.
I just saw they have 75 SEVENTY FIVE 125gr .308 bullets. Unknown provenance, quality, etc. They say that specifically. On clearance for $49 for the 75. They have 28 total 178gr .308 match bullets on clearance for $35 for the 28 bullets.
What in gods name are they smoking?

Somewhere, sometime, someone is paying those prices. And as long as they are, places like this will continue to charge those prices.

Still there. For 1000, cost works out to 11.8 cents a bullet (with $11 shipping, 6% sales tax).
As good a price as I've seen. Works out same cost as RMR.

9mm at 8.2 cents each per 1,000 BUT 10 = 12 weeks to ship!

My last order took 8 weeks from RMR
Its a hell of a deal but I hate to see my money sitting with a basement store for 3 months.

RMR announced price increases, most of you existing customers are probably already aware, but get you orders in this weekend if you want to get in ahead of the increase.
"First, I have waited as long as I feel is safe to wait to raise prices. One of the things we cannot control in the bullet industry is commodity prices. Copper and lead prices fluctuate a bit but usually within a pretty good margin of error so we can set a price for our finished products and have some reasonable expectation to not have to change it. Usually, if there is a huge spike it tumbles right back down again to where we can manage. Well, since April the cost of copper has steadily risen almost every day. We are now paying about a $1.50 more per lb of copper than we were in April. Since we started manufacturing four years ago we have never seen copper get this high. We are currently going through about 40,000 lbs of copper each month. That means we are now losing about $60,000 a month in just the increase in copper cost. Lead has recently taken a small spike as well but I don't see it going as high as copper. That said, we are doing about 120,000 lbs of lead a month and a 15 cent increase per lb is $18,000. Anyway, this is a long way for me to show you why I've been forced to consider a price increase. In the end, it amounts to between $6-$8 more for us to produce 1,000 bullets. We've held on for about as long as we can. The copper spike does not appear to be slowing down. I will be changing prices on all our in-house products at the beginning of January. We have checked the prices of our competitors and it seems most of them have already more than taken advantage of the increase in demand. Our new pricing should still be considerably lower than most of our competition.
I'm giving you a few days to put in orders before I change the prices. This means we are going to get a TON of orders between today and the beginning of the new year. Please expect a long wait time for shipping on the orders placed between now and then. Especially if you order 115 or 124 FMJ RN. Those are currently about 12 weeks out. "

After reading about their upcoming price increases, I figure that will put them closer to direct competition with Xtreme.
Just got my order for 1K 115s and still awaiting 1K 124s. I should have done like others and put in an order every month just to keep them coming in regularly.
