Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles Finaly Found some large rifle primers at local gun shop today.

Was at Scheels the other day, and damn. Now I'm even more happy that my girlfriend bought me 3 bricks at $74.99/brick!!!!

Nice!!

All I can see in Canada these days are those Bosnia made Ginex primers. Large and small rifle. But there’s plenty of them. There’s no such thing as a Winchester, Remington, federal or CCI large rifle primer in Canada right now.

Today I saw Remington 9 1/2 primers at Scheels for $100/brick. Fleet Farm had them for $10 less. Scheels also had the Winchester Large Rifle Magnum primers though I did not see a price on them. Glad I don't any though.

Also, picked up 500 Winchester 209 at a mom and pop gun shop for $30. They were on the "miscellaneous" table on which various items that come in on trades or to to clear out estates are sold. It is definitely buyer beware but one can get some pretty good deals if they know what they are looking at.

I got a brick locally here back around October for $74.99, and a brick of WSR just last month for $79.99 a brick. Those same ones are now $99.99 a brick here.

We have a LGS here that sells them, but you have to buy 5,000 at a time.

Interesting....very interesting.

Online,.. every price gouging piece of trash has primers and powder in stock.

The trash even offers "sale" prices on some of it.....that is just laughable.

Uh huh, that is interesting too, as that only recently started to happen

No limits on how much you can buy for the most part........because they need to sell it.

Yes, some is not in stock but it is showing up.

Its starting to stack up too, little by little.....even seen it here.

What is very obvious and evidenced by comments here and other forums is that not everyone is buying or buying only a really small amount.

Yes, again you have the one off here and there of semi big purchases.....not like it had been for the trash.

Bookkeeper for the trash can compare to past several years of the last 3 presidents........and sees a noticeable change and a trend that they have done to themselves.

Looking over the shoulder of the other trash and doing the same price gouging has and will keep hampering their sales.

I know man. It sucks!!! I was warned that prices were going to go up at the beginning of the year. By a minimum of 10%.

I have some CCI Large Rifle Magnum primers that I would trade for some regular Large Rifle primers.

Where are you located? I'd be happy to trade.

Bought some Federal gold medal match large rifle today at the new Scheels in Meridian Idaho. $99 per 1000
They had large rifle in Fed 210 and GMM , CCI , Rem and Win. 1000 per person. Wife was there so bought a couple 1,000. May go back tomorrow and pick up some more . They had a lot of bullets Nosler, Sierra, Narnes etc.. unfortunately Im not very mobile due to a recent knee replacement. Driving their damn cart was a pain while trying check things out. I do wish they had Fed 215’s although I still have 3-4 thousand.

Wow! Your lucky, ive not seen primers that available in my neck of the woods for many years...Congrats!...Hb

I refuse to believe that inflation is to blame for primers that were 35.00 brick to jump to 130.00 a brick.

I still think they are trying to get rich off of us.

PS..... Biden is a corksucker.

WOW! That’s only $100/brick more than I paid for my last primers I bought @ Scheels in Billings. But…..that was a while back! memtb

These first primers I have bought in the last 8 years was in March. Win LR for 79.99 a brick and now the Fed GM match.
Prior to that I was paying about 39.00 a brick if I remember correctly.
I need to do a inventory as I may need to boost my large and small pistol primers and possibly my small rifle inventory.

The Outdoorsman in Ontario has had a steady supply of Federal SPP and LPP over the last three years. The last I purchased were $70/1000. But that has been over a year ago.

Thanks
Need to head to Fruitland soon so will stop in. Been a while since I have been there
