Primers have been finally coming down and becoming available. At what price will you buy them these days. I don't know if we'll ever see $25-$40/1000 with Biden dollars.
I found some today at a local shop for $59/1000. They had cci and Federal in small rifle, small rifle mag, large pistol, small pistol, and small pistol mag. They let me buy 6000 so I did. I'd been thinking if I find them under $60 I'd buy again. If the hit $40 I'll back up the truck.
What's your buy price and back up the truck price these days?

I’ve got enough but I think I’m still averaging about $10/1000.
If I see them under $50 or thereabouts I’ll pick up some more.

Bb I was in your part of Idaho week and half ago went to several lgs in Idaho falls and rexburg and I didn’t see any primers for less than 90 bucks a 1k. Varget 60 bucks a lb. One shop had h4831 $520 for a 8lber.
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

Bb, you did pretty good all the primers you mentioned around here been availible for about 6 months.75 to 85/ brick. The real trick is large rifle size std or Magnum any brand. Last Sept I lucked into a sleave of RP 9 1/2 LR for 350 or 70/1000. Couple of weeks ago the local Scheels had about 10 sleaves of cci-34 they lasted less than 2 days at 125 / 1000. Last Saturday I found some cci-34's at a gunshow for 90. I don't think we will ever see them less than 50/1000 again unless a guy finds a scalper bailing on his stash. I shoot more than most people I have all sizes and types but not in every brand. When they get to 50 /1000 again I'll restock..mb

I have all I need. Stocked up about 10 years ago. I won’t be buying any more, ever.

Saw one brick of CCI LR BR primers at Bass Pro Sunday. Just one. $159
It looked like it had been there a while. People had picked that brick up, pondered….and put it right back down apparently many times.
I didn’t bother to even pick it up…

I recently got Remington large rifle for 85/1000. Now the gun-shop has them for 80/1000. I’ll guess they never go to 60.00 retail. My Dillon burns them up quick, so I am just glad to have a supply.

I really don't "need" any primers right now, but I will buy if the price isn't to far above $60/1000

In my neck of the woods large rifle primers are scarce in the local shops. I would love to find some for $60/1000.

I need some LR. Havent seen any in some time. I would pay up to $70 per 1000. I have over 5000 LR Magnums on hand that I can use but would have to revamp my loads which I dont want to do.

$40 per brick seems steep to me.
But, copper wire was invented when two Dutchmen found a penny....

Noticed a big stack of Federal Gold Match 210's at Fleet Farm recently for $10.50/100. Grabbed 1000. The way I look at it is I've paid more. All of a sudden, $10.50 seems pretty good. No such thing as deflation so I don't ever expect to find them for half of this.

Bb IF you NEED them, the time to buy them is when you see them.
