I don't shoot inline much, but I knew I only had a pack or two of primers. Amazingly when I went shotgun shopping at Grice's yesterday they had Remington 209. Equally amazing, I paid 13 bucks a pack, limit one pack.
It's not only 209 primers. In fact the single most difficult component to find are primers of any kind, and the prices have ranged from $13.99 per 100, to only $80 for a brick.
Youthful enthusiasm is replaced by old age and treachery!
