What the heck is going on! I did not realize that the panic pricing appears to have affected the cost of percussion caps too. I have not see any recent increase in black powder/bp substitute or bullets, just the caps but ml bullets and powder have seemed to be higher in cost, when compared to metallic reloading components, for a long time now.
