20 years before that we could reload it for $6.
I wouldn't be surprised if next year its $60 plus.

Depends on the load. At $55 a box it must be buckshot/slugs or one of the high-end steel loads. Trap ammo is still less than $20 a box or $150ish a slab. Standard lead rabbit loads are around $30ish a box of 25.
