I can’t remember the last time I bought ammo from a brick & mortar store.

The last time I bought from a brick and mortar was last December. I found a good price on some ammo at my favorite range.

I sincerely hope I’m wrong. I’ve been used to paying $300 +/- per 1000.

Go over to ammoseek and you can find case quantities of .223 for $390 and 5.56 for $500. Prices are slowly starting to come down. I don't know if we'll see <$300 any time.

I just did a search. Limiting it to brass case only, I see alot of retailers selling 5.56 for .50 to .55 per round, and .223 for .445 to .49 per round. So yes, right in line with your numbers.

Personally, I could always find ammo somewhere. It's just that the price was close to $1.00 a round for a while there.
