Primers, as with all components, will never get back to pre-hysteria days. Many people forget that normal inflation affects everything, including reloading supplies.

I was buying primers by the cases after Clinton’s attack on arms and ammunition. I’m glad I did, I bought so far into the future, I still have 4 cases of Remington 7 1/2 small rifle primers.

During all this shortage, I have found and bought several more cases of small rifle primers at around $60.00/1000. Right now I can still buy small rifle and small pistol primers under $70.00/1000. You do have to do your homework. Will we ever see case lots of primers under $100.00/5000 again, probably not. It there are still primers out there if you look. Large rifle primers are not cheap or available yet.


I bought a bunch of Ginex large rifle primers when I could find them and I still have close to 2 cases of them if there is anyone in Southwest Montana that wants some, I will sell some…
