I have a handgun that shoots creedmoor. Thank God I stocked up on tons of brass, bullets and powder for creedmoors, and have both small and large primer cases depending upon what primers I run out of first.Since the question is about rifle ammo, I moved the post out of the Handguns discussion area.
I don't think they will anytime in the near future, at least until well past 2024, fear of upheaval is sweeping the country and people are arming up and stockpiling getting ready for some kind of civil war/Armageddon conflict.Wait for things to settle down and the pandemic will cause a new base price that we can complain about because it will probably be 15% more than we're use to. ...

My advice ? Get into handloading and you won't have to worry about paying $2.50 / rd.
There was a brief window of time after Bergara took over CVA that you could buy Scouts made with bergara barrels for under $200--I bought the creedmoor pistol and a rifle in 444 marlin--I only wish I had bought ALL their scouts, especially the small 44 mag carbine.Stagpanther - Has that nice pistol above. I partially wish I went that route but I did buy the CVA Optima V2 pistol (50 cal Muzzleloader) just like it and it's a kick in the hand and miles of smiles when everyone else at the range looks your way as the smoke clears.
Blindstitch said:I got into reloading for 30-30 because that's all I had. I stayed for 30-40 Krag and 6.5 Arisaka. A couple years ago Krag was $1.75-2.00 a round. I've never seen 6.5 Arisaka on a shelf. During the Sandy shortage Krag went up to $60 at local trading posts in northern Michigan. It stayed on the shelf then till prices got down but probably not this time.
Reloading can be expensive but well worth the time when you're the only one with ammo.
