I think I would have gone ahead and picked a few anyway, at that price, regardless and added them too the fold.

I have a good supply of 20 caliber 54 HP grain bullets on the shelf for the winter, but I do need to replenish my 38 grain HP stash now that summer is over.... But not at almost $0.40 per bullet.

Are you guys sure you're reading it correctly? According to the government there is no inflation. In fact I just checked here:

Ya right.. Just like Biden's White house spokeswomen, said today that the reason cost and prices are going up, is due to all the buying people are doing.
They are some sort of real nutcases, now days in Washington DC. Bunch of idiots and still pushing socialism, like Venesuela did, and now the USA is beginning to look like it, with empty shelves, high cost, if you can find somethng to buy.

I have some primers I bought from Scheels over the years that still have the price tags on them. $25-40 per 1,000 depending on the type. $100 is crazy!

When I started reloading back in 1992, I could buy WSP and WLR primers locally for $7.50 per 1,000.

To say the least I’m just a little disappointed with Brownells.
I can understand some of the others seizing the opportunity to make a fast buck but not them. Have done business with the for years and cannot believe the few extra bucks are worth the hard feelings it causes. Until recently the didn’t even sell primers.
