Local gun shop had cci 500 pistol primers for a whopping 65.00 per 1000. I picked up a couple. Hoping for the days when they were 20.00. Glad to finally get some!
Yeah, I missed out. Never loaded pistol really. I loaded for a 10mm years ago but had sold it. Always loaded rifle. So now playing catch up. Glad to get some even though the prices are 3x what they use to be.
I paid about the same a few months ago for a brick at a LGS. 32 S&W Long is my primary small game a plinking round, though, and my rifle likes the 500s, so it was just a bite the bullet deal. 🤷♂️

That's the cheapest they've been in awhile. They keep coming down.
I may go back and grab another 2,000, if they have any left. I have been slowly working up a 9mm load for plinking. Ive been using 3.4 N320 and 147 grainers. Want to try N340 for some subsonic loads.
Vista outdoors, who owns CCI, Federal, and a bunch of other companies put out a statement today that there will be no primers in the near future. So don't bet on prices going down anytime soon.

Great. Must be larger profit margins in loaded ammo.
