Went to nieces volleyball game in Spokane, Wa. and stopped by Cabelas at Stateline. Hold and behold they had primers and some powder in stock. This is like finding gold. They limit you to 2000 primers and 2 pounds. Of powder.


Nothing like a Remington 700xcr.

I've been seeing WLRMs in stores here regularly.

I've seen a fair amount of primers around. Haven't looked for powder locally for some time. Pretty much have everything I need except RL15.

Same here. Even big 5 sells them if you get desperate...

Interesting how different areas have different shortages. I was at a local GS yesterday and they had all the Reloder rifle powders a guy could want at $25/lb.
Primers have been readily available for awhile as well.
No fast burning pistol powders to be found in any flavor.

I haven't seen powder for a long time. However about 4 months ago they got a shipment in for some reason and the shelf looked like this at the local store I go to:

The shelves were still very empty, but that's the best I've seen in about 2 years!! They limit us to 1 pound of powder per day per customer too. Now the shelves are darn near empty again.

Primers are not that hard to find around here, it's powder and brass that is hard to come by.

Yeah this is my situation as well. OP reminded me of what I have to be grateful for.

I've gone from RPLRs & CCI-200s w/ kernels but am now working on a a change over to nearly all WLRMs & Ramshot.

RL15 is really hard to find here...
