RRWW Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Local Runnings fleet store was out of small pistol primers for a couple months. 6 boxes of Fed SPP showed up last week at 39.99 per 1000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pskys2 Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Score 2 flats from Midway several weeks ago. Get put on the Notify List and when they do act quick. They had them 3 times in 6 weeks and were out by the next morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Butters Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 (edited) Why have they dried up, just because they're a little lighter to ignite and thats a hot commodity? Edited September 28, 2016 by Butters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDA Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 3 hours ago, Butters said: Why have they dried up, just because they're a little lighter to ignite and thats a hot commodity? My understanding (or belief) is that Federal was using all of them in the production of their own ammo so there wasn't enough production for the sale of primers as a component.

21 shooter Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Hazmat and shipping makes for expensive primers at 5k. But it beats being completely out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterthefish Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Hazmat and shipping makes for expensive primers at 5k. But it beats being completely out. I think the 5K limit may be Federals. I've bought more than that in one go from PV recently (CCI SPP and SRPs). Add some powder and it evens out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
