I have never seen them at the Atwood’s in Broken Arrow or Sapulpa. I will have to keep a look out.
These showed up the last day or two. The employee did a search in their system, and it showed what they had on shelf plus 3-4 other types in the system that were not on order for their specific store. So if you catch someone willing to help, have them search "primers" and see what pops up
Since fedrals website is about 80 bucks a thousand plus hazmat and shipping I don't see prices coming down.
Not trying to play devils advocate here, and I do hope prices go back down, but even with $70-90/k primers, and $40-50/lb powder, reloading is STILL cheaper than factory ammo, at least for hunting rifles and revolver type ammo
And people who bought lumber in may of 2021 thought the price would never come down!
I can remember people (nut jobs) buying a brick (500rds) of Rem thunder bolt for $100 with free shipping back in the obummer era.
And I can remember a person I know buying a few bricks of 22's at a local joint here during the Trump era for $15 a brick!
As long as someone keeps buying primers at elevated prices, they will keep the prices up!
When the buying stops, the price will drop!
ammo has dropped a lot and is continuing to drop - not long ago bullets were bought at 100%+ markup as quick as it hit the shelves - now tons of ammo available and prices are dropping - when people quit cleaning the shelves of primers at the current prices - the price will drop
always has and always will
fortunately some stores like Cabellas are not jacking their prices so much - those selling for $100 are skinning their customers - and some are foolish enough to get in the line
When I was in Cabelas just before Christmas, they said $130/1000 for primers
I'd sell every primer I have for that price!
Midway has 41 ($99) and 209A ($75) ships 1/24.
