Primers in stock

I just picked up br2 for $109 thought that wasn't bad.
Guys we all know some are gouging, we also know lots of guys are scalping.
In fact my place I found had good stock accused me of doing juts that for buying a good amount of rl26 over the timeline they set forth. 1lbs a week.
But my situation is I had a small house no room to reload. All was done at my brothers 3 hours away. Now he lives 21 hours and I have a new house with a room. So all the stuff we had went with him. I'm now trying to setup a room with everything I need. I put off load work for about 8 rifles. A lot of my stuff burns around 100gr at a time so I go through a good amount.
Just try to keep it in mind. The general Reloader is not to blame nor are older ones. The last 3 years have had record breaking gun sales. If only a fraction of them start to reload that's a lot to supply.
In fact that's exactly what several I know did. And they never batted an eye at $500 a brick online to get them started they had no benchmark price to start with.
Nothing wrong with gouging or scalping if someone wants to pay the price. Saw a 65 Chevy sell for $42,000 two weeks ago no one said anything about scalping or gouging. Crying over spilt milk. Why did you not buy a few hundred thousand when they were available. I bought 60 boxes from Midway at one time when they had them on sale for $20 a box. Still got most of those. Probably have 140,000 now in cache but won't sell any because of replacement costs and availability. Stop crying and send a letter to your politicians to resell government overstocks to the public and stop overbuying for government agencies. Why did DHLS buy 3 billion last year and destroyed 3 billion? Dah... Do you think it is quasi control over the second amendment without legislation? With 100 million gun owners in the U.S. we could get our freedoms back if we primary out the RINO's out and vote out the Socialists. If you haven't voted for your liberty and made known your ideals to your government reps you have no room to bitch or be butt hurt about this. Just go about your life and do as your told, give up your weapons, wear your mask, take your jab and shut up... To all patriots- Happy Shooting, to the rest F___k Off.
 
The small mom and pop shops are almost as bad off buying power wise as we are as individuals.

When they could buy a case of primers at a time they still had to pay the same for shipping and hazmat fees but they could divide it by a thousand sleeves of primers instead of 20-100 and if they can't get them direct or through one of the national wholesalers your'e right, they're paying the same as we do when ordering from Brownell's, Mid South, or Midway.

According to what I was told Federal/CCI has a new primer plant under construction that should be producing in 90-180 days which is going to relieve some pressure but they are so far behind on orders it will probably take them at least 6-12 months after production begins before they can knock much of a hole in the backlog of orders.

As always we'll just have to dig in and wait it out.
Ironically. I heard the same thing Just yesterday!
 
Yeah so should be about 3 cents American🤣!
Well Canada has fallen and JusttheDictator has really messed up Canada, but the dollar is not quite that strong in the exchange markets yet. Give ol JusttheDictator another year or two and maybe when Trump comes back in, he will buy Canada instead of
Greenland. Then we can get IMR powder back as an American brand too.:)
