Primers

[bf1002]

Are retail stores still receiving any primers or am I wasting my time looking? I've been looking for the last two weeks and have yet to see anywhere get anything in stock.

Yes I bought my limit of them last week locally here in MT.

Ya I got 3000 small rifle this week going to load a bunch this weekend

Yes. It’s all about timing.

I've found a few, but the price is shocking. $20/100 seems like a deal currently...

I was recently told by a retailer in northern Colorado that they would not be seeing any primers at all, for the foreseeable future. Did you find your small rifle primers at a retailer or did you pay $500 (or more) at one of the auction sites? Thanks

 

[bf1002]

I guess my timing is off then. I'm in TX and can't find any. I guess I will just keep looking and hoping to get lucky. Lol.

I found some LR primers at my LGS last week, paid $5.95 per 100 (limit 2) if I remember correctly.

A local sporting goods store received a bunch the other day. A friend told me they were priced at $41 per 1000. Apparently the supply lasted a few hours which surprised me a bit. I'm hopeful that supply will increase and demand will decrease.

I need a brick of SRPs due to my standard repurchasing practices (buy a new brick when I open one), but I won’t pay silly prices. I’m hoping to time my purchase right and find some coming in stock locally for under $50/1000.

Even the mere mention of any new regulations will keep this largely-self-inflicted crap going for far longer. Maybe time will encourage people to calm down on the silliness after a little bit.

No at a sporting good store for 64 bucks after tax.

My local Scheels store had 10-15 100 primer sleeves the other night, but they were magnum small rifle. Limit 2 per person of course. I didn't look at the price, because I have no need for those.

 

[bf1002]

I will keep looking. Just sucks because I don't have the ability to go to my local stores every morning right at opening.

Harris is a commie racist to the core. She'll be in office within a year, Biden's obviously looney-toons. It's not silliness, we're in big trouble until we get back at least one house of congress.

Might be time to check IP addresses from Arizona.

Please, this is a thread on primers and has nothing to do with politics.

What the hell does that have to do with the conversation? Take this kinda crap somewhere else on the internet.

 

[reesej]

it has plenty to do with waiting for primer prices to come down. or availability to go up. you need to get out more.

You must have been dropped a lot as a young lad....
