Did anybody else notice the almost doubling of prices on Partition 2nds??

Sure did, I just ordered a bunch of 180 30 cal for 18.95 and now they are 29.95 per 50. Was waiting for some 165's but now I don't know, not much difference between them and retail at this time. Retail may double soon, who knows.

I don't see Hornady or others jacking their prices up like Nosler is.
I called SPS a few days ago and the gentleman stated the price increases are coming from the top and are due to fuel and raw material increases. He stated just deduct $5 from our factory first prices for the 2nd's price. Not much savings there anymore!
Time to switch bullet brands!

The best deal in bullets just went to cr_p. Back to Hornady, like Mtnhtr just stated... Now I am really hanging on to what I have....

Anybody sticking up now to guard against future price increases?
BTW looks like the 7mm ballistic tips seconds are staying about the same price.

I have a couple of rifles that shoot Nosler seconds, the price differnce between Nosler seconds and TSX/TTSXs just got a lot smaller. When my stocks run low I will have to consider which way to go.

For hunting I'd still buy 7mm accubonds at twice the price and it would still be the cheapest part of any hunt. Fun shooting, I started loading 162gr A-max's a couple of years ago.

Fortunately I grabbed a bunch of the 160 AB's after they advised via email that they were out of the 160 gr Partitions seconds they had. The offered the AB's at the same "old" price as the Partitions so I took them. This just two days before the price increase so I lucked out. Hornady's are my go to deer and fun bullet. The Nosler's only go after large game with the TSX depending upon rifle. As noted, bullets are still cheap when compared to the time and money invested in a hunt.
