Give a man a plane ticket, he'll fly for a day.
Throw a man out of an airplane, he'll fly for the rest of his life.

Hey, it is the out-of-stater. Lol
Just for giggles I looked it up.
12/29/2008 they was $24.16 / brick of 1000.
10/8/2014 $23.99 / 1000
I see on @PanhandleGlocker page some 9mm as low as 22.5 cents per round.
PanhandleGlocker GDOTD!!
The better blazer brass @ 29.9 cents per round.
And they are loading those, shipping them out the door at a profit.
Surely the cost to mfg those primer has barely changed with the minuscule increase in the cost of raw materials.
It is basic supply demand! Hey, by all means, if you "need" some grab some!
I guess if I had a "need" to load some for some self defence, or hunting ammo because I was completely out (and my life depended on it), I would grab some too, but no way would I be buying in bulk!!

Surely interesting, and definitely something that would be great to know how to do!
I would think a person could be safer today to do this out of their garage than it was in a factory in the 1800s.
Keep us posted!
Exactly my thoughts! It’s not for everyone but if we ever got into that situation where there will be no more factory primers people will be searching for guys like this to buy/barter from him or learn how he does it. Some people can’t tie their own shoes (Joe Biden) but others are smart enough to do things like this and do it safely.
So, how's the primer making/reloading going???
He died in January in massive explosion… or he smartened up and just bought some primers and moved on
I was watching a show about how they make primers. It was manually in very small batches and hand scraping the igniter in. I suppose after the fourth or fifth time a tray lights up in your face you probably quit pooping yourself and just carry on...
Probably a select market for prosthetic eyebrows too.

I have been thinking of doing this for awhile. How is it going? Here is a die to make your own cups.

Interesting. Get several and see if you can’t get an elementary class to pound out primer cups for a craft project. Oh geez! I’m thinking again....
I have enough around here to start a class.
These kids can shell 6 bushels of peas in just a few hours
I haven't tryed it but i do have between 5000 to 100000n hand if you need some to start with.
