Primers

[Rifletom]

r-n-g, you got the primers you wanted, but did you get the rain? Man, we got hammered here yesterday and windy as heck! Drying out today.
Well, we needed it. Desert last week and again next Tues/Wed. Shootin' to be done!

I anyone in need large pistol primers Shaw Arms has Fiocchi for sale now. They are going for $109 for a box of 1500 which work out to 7.3 cent a primer. Order in a larger quantity to spread shipping and hazmat fee out. I order 3 boxes (4500) and it worked out to 8.6 cents a primer. More than I like to spend, but when you need the you need them. Found them with AmmoSeek. On Monday the almost 600 boxes in stock the they are down to 133.

Shaw seems a little slow to ship (3-4 days), but they are on there way.

No Large sized stuff? Those seem to be very tough to dig up locally.......

Yup. Although there has been a ton of shot shell primer.

3 days ago I Ordered 3000 Fiocchi SP primers they arrived today. They're bricks of 1500, they were well packed with no damage. I've used Fiocchi before with no issues in my revolvers , 1911 or 9mm. Price was $255 with hazmat and shipping that's $85 per 1000 all said and done, I miss the old days but I needed primers . Republic ammunition in Lima,Ohio is legit and I'll buy from them again

Stuff is pretty scarce up here too now, I was fortunate to stock up before the supply chain issues. Good for a decade or two now.

Hair cut & gun store day. Get a hair cut and head to a gun store. @Sportsmans, lot of small pistol winchester primers and cci small rifle bench rest primers on the shelf.
I bought the last of the large rifle primers.

[edit] they also had a lot of powder including black powder and caps.

Local Gun Shop in Sandy, OR (Rapid Fire Arms) currently has quite a few CCI primers in stock for pistols. Large and Small Pistol primers, standard and magnum. No rifle primers however.

Added in EDIT:
They also have a fair amount of powders now as well. Seems to be mostly Hodgdon's stuff. I bought a pound of "Leverevolution" powder, and there's another pound of that still there. $44.99 for the one pound of the LVR powder; I think the bricks of the large pistol primers were around $109-ish. I'm kinda afraid prices like these may be "The New Norm". It was nice to see 'em on the shelves, tho!
