At another stop I saw 4 Henrys, two single shot shotguns and a lever action 410, and a golden boy. The most I've seen in one place in a good while.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

I just look locally when out and about.
This shop had these the last time I stopped, and
he has sold quite a few because there were more about a month ago.
They did have 3 boxes of Speer 45 gr 224's for $11.00 a 100.
I almost bought them but passed.

Congratulations on your score. Living in the Peoples Republic of New Jersey we have to rely on the internet and incurring assorted shipping costs.

I find this to be mildly encouraging because it shows that Winchester is releasing at least a small amount of primers to the open market.

Back in December 2021 I happened to be in the LGS when a load of Winchester primers arrived. I stocked up well over the next 2 days with large and small primers. The shop has a long standing order for lots of products and they never know when stuff might show up.

I was just in the right place at the right time that day and since then no more primers have come in. Price wasn't bad either at 55 bucks per 1K
Who knows when Alliant powder like Unique will show up again!

I think the new normal will be at least $75/1000. Haven’t seen any around here (Central NYS) in years.
