forty, you're right about Unique. Haven't seen any at my LGS in some time. Nor Universal or 2400. Did manage to get some Red Dot a couple months ago. But now, nada. I'm ok on components, but, still.........

Earlier in the week, I purchased a box of 1000 Winchester large pistol primers (WLP). They box is red and white like the small primers you purchased. I noticed the new packaging does not state the use of the primer on the packaging. My older WLP primer box states "For standard and magnum" ammunition.

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.......

Saw some CCI sm rifle primers yesterday in a shop for about $80 as I recall. The store owner picked them up at an estate sale. Didn’t need any so left them but at least they weren’t $100 :o

Got an email from Capital Cartridge the other day. They had GINEX small pistol primers and small rifle primers $575 for 5000
Had never heard of GINEX primers before - don't know anything about them. At that price they are 11 1/2 cents a primer. I think 5000 was the minimum purchase. The last primers I purchased were Winchester and they were $79.99 for a 1000.

They're more than I've ever paid, but they have primers. Free shipping in bulk.

SPM CCI $599 per 5K, free shipping and others, including large pistol and rifle.
