Yes, but if you buy 5000 you can divide the hazmat up between 5 boxes and your price comes out to around 75.00 a box and I'll guarantee you Midway ain't losing money at it. just keep in mind your local crooks are paying the same as midway and they are charging that much more. These damn sporting goods stores are fuqking people over left and right for primers. I'm sick and tired of it so I quit buying anything from the local crooks and am ordering everything now, screw them! Good points.

I bought 5,000 for $84.00 per thousand with free ship and hazmat. I hated it but I like to shoot my 9mm pistol in club shoots. I paid $317.00 per 8 lb. of Sport Pistol. Prices are out of sight.

I got 8# of H110, four 1# of CFE223 and two bricks of CCI #450s for $450. The primers were $60 a brick and I would have bought more if they had them. Everything else was $9 per 100 or more.

Its a no brainer If you have SR primers (like me) & run a striker fired 9mm Ruger PC Carbine..Rem 7.5's Use the primer you have on the shelf They are identical to size as a SP primer Not the same with LP & LR primers T R U M P W O N !

I genuinely believe it is BS gouging at the distributor and manufacturer level. If prices do triple in the next five years, I’ve got a bass boat and a set of golf clubs that don’t get enough use…..
