SOLD/EXPIRED WTB: Federal 215M primers Cortez Co area

[Predator 22]

I know it's a long shot but I'm low on 215's and could use 1000 or whatever you can spare. I'm willing to pay msrp no more.

Still looking

Hey Buddy

When I was working in Farmington NM, I picked up a few 1000's 215M at East Main Trade Center. I forget what I paid but I think it was around 45.00 dollars which was a good deal at these times.

Thanks

Thanks for the tip how long ago did you get them there and they are the 215 magnum match?

 

[SWcowboy]

The last time that I got them there was November 2015 and I picked up 2000 Federal 215M primers the good ones you are looking for. I worked in the oil field and found that place and got 2 boxes but at the time they had 5000 and they told me that they get them about once a month.

Thanks again I will go down there when I get home. I'm working in the patch in Williston. Who were you working for?

 

[SWcowboy]

I was working for Halliburton in the tool department. I was over Farmington, Vernal and Grand Junction. In March they shutdown our department and laid off 11 people and me. How about you?

Schlumberger slickline and digital slickline specialist. Sorry to hear that you were laid off. I'm Mostly working in Williston N.D. and Greeley Co. But have worked in Montana, Navada, Wyoming, Alberta, and Mulan, France. I'm one of two digital slickline specialist in the Rockies region so they are having a hard time getting rid of me even though it would be nice to go home for a while. We went from ten people in our base and 30 plus people in the Rockies to two people total in slickline in a matter of 10 months. Good luck to you hopefully you have found another job.

I know slick line and what you do, I was being trained about 8 years ago for that job for about 6 months but Halliburton charges to much for their work in that area in the Farmington, Vernal and GJ. We couldn't get enough business fighting the mom and pop slick line companies due to what they charged to us that Halliburton dropped that department in this area. They asked me if I would transfer to Alaska but they wouldn't send me to slick line school first and i told them no and i think that was a good call. What I know now, I should of stayed in Frac. I am job hunting and may have two different jobs that I will know by Wednesday and if not I got a summer job if I don't find something but I will keep looking for full time even then as well. But in the mean time on the weekends I have been shooting and reloaded 100 rounds and may do more for my 300 RUM with the Fed 215 M for the Gateway dynamite shot at the end of this month if I don't have a job yet and a bunch of 45 ACP and 40 S&W that this winter I didn't get done. What work schedule do they got you on so you can be home to reload and be able to shoot what ever you plan to use these primers on. By the way I know Cortez CO well as I had family living there for a long time till everyone moved and I was born there as well.

I work a three weeks on and one week off schedule so by the time I get my wife's list of stuff done it don't leave me much time to shoot or reload. I'm in the process of getting the parts together for a 28 nosler. I ordered my action about a month ago from defiance. That's what the primers are for I have a few hundred but would like to have another thousand, that would last the life of the barrel. I'm a cortez native as well but lived in Montrose for about a year and a half spent a lot of time over in delta area down in rattlesnake canyon. My name is Ty Williams I'm related to the Williford and Hollen family's in the cortez area and the Taylor's in Montrose.
