Am I off base here?

I have definitely noticed an increase. Used to get Fiocchi 62 gr from DSG for $299 a case with Mil discount. Good stuff - shoots clean, good brass, pretty accurate for what it is. It is now $379. The 55 gr stuff is now $340, used to be about 15 bucks more.  Still not so bad. I don't think they charged me for shipping either. Natchez has PMC for $5.99, or just under 300 smackers a case.
Prices are up but there are still a few deals to be had here and there.
