Skywatcher Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 Seems when primers do hit shelves again in a year or so new price will be $75-$100 per 1000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
18111811 Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 Midway is sitting at 75/k now. damn near doubling the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davsco Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 actually $100 because they're only selling 1k at a time and with hazmat etc it's around $100 out the door. brownells has jacked up their prices also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outerlimits Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 scored 5K from brownell's on 3/6 for $46/K. even if the prices jumped, it is gouging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what "gauging" even means, usually it means that the person doesn't like that the market value has gone up. I'd love to buy shares of Ford for $5 but that's not what they're selling at. Should I feel gauged? I wish primers would be on the shelf at $75-100, people would only buy what they need and there wouldn't be shortages. I'd be happy to pay $100+ per pound for certain powders right now if it meant I could get a few pounds rather than waiting and hoping to catch a place to buy a jug or three or having to redevelop my loads.

wdfwguy Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 I don't see primer prices being $75 a year from now. I think powder prices will be back to normal in a few months. As soon as retailers can keep either on the shelves for more than a few days at a time, I think prices will start to drop pretty quickly. People won't be motivated to hoard, or pay inflated prices on the secondary market. GB prices are already dropping to almost retail levels now. My local Scheels had primers in stock for a week without selling out. We're getting there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warpspeed Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 A search of the completed auction on GB for SPP indicate a price of $ 200/K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmiya Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Was in a Scheel's on Saturday (5/29/21), they had CCI Small rifle magnum @$47/K and Small Rifle Bench rest $65/k. Limit 1K per customer. Didn't buy any since don't use either. Later I saw a lot of the CCI Small Rifle Magnums primers for $90-$150 per 1000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lefty o Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 i dont know about others, but i for sure wont forget who jacked up prices when things are available again. a small increase due to availability is one thing, but doubling or tripling prices, i dont forget.

1911jerry Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 I was in a well known reloading shop today in Phoenix and saw primers (CCI benchrest) for $130 and CCI #41 for $120. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuz Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Lol, good one Sarge. Current pricing for CCI SPP from Natchez is $491 for 5,000 delivered. Hopefully, the next time I buy primers they will be at least a bit more reasonable… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EEH Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Myrtle Beach gun show last week,primers were at $80.00 per 1000 and not one buyer. did see one guy buy 200, for rifle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver_Surfer Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 (edited) Wow, with ammo coming back I'd figure primer's would be also. Seems like this one is lasting longer than the other shortages/panic buys from decades back. Edited November 5, 2021 by Silver_Surfer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ltdmstr Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Friend of mine was in a store in MO about 6 months ago and they had a whole table full of Federal SPP priced at $60/k with no limit. Not exactly cheap, but that's the best price I've seen in a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnipTheDog Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Natchez is the place to go if you want to purchase more than 1k primers to offset the hazmat costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intheshaw1 Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 I picked up primers at Cabela's for $65/k a month or so ago. But if you're tracking prices online, it's all ticking up for primers while ammo is falling. Brownells did have a special today for 2k of primers for $200 but it came with a Brownells $75 gift card. That's the best online price I've seen in a while. Most now are 75 or 85/k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
