While Ammo prices are mostly higher than 2019, the last normal pre-covid, pre-excessive government spending and massive inflation, but then they are not likely to return that low except in rare cases.
Low price sources for 9mm at $0.22 to $0.25 per round were as follows:

While many brands are less than the name brand NATO ammo, when buying 1,000 rounds, I will pay the extra for name brand Mil Spec ammo from Lake City. Granted, it is not the best quality 5.56 ammo, but it is probably the best value.
