Not kidding they are everywhere but outside the U.S. If u have a friend in Canada have him buy you a case...get a passport and go get it bout the only way...hide them good though coming back. Illegal.

Anyone know if I can buy 416 ruger brads and run it thru a 375 sizing die so I can shoot 375 ruger with it ?
Go to the reloading forum here at LRH and ask, you'll get broader exposure from people who know.
Same here
Only primers I see at reasonable price are Sellier and Beloit. I've been told they work well but I still have a few bricks of kinds I need. Large rifle magnums in Federal and CCI running at about $100CDN.

Yeah it's been frustrating. Picked up 2 bricks locally in the last two years for $75-100 ea. Was really hoping prices come down.
Finally gave in and ordered 20k CCI small rifle at $100 a brick last week just to have them. I think these are getting commercially vacuum packed, GI canned and tucked away. Hopefully 20 years from now I'll find them again and kick myself for spending that much. Unfortunately, I think it will more likely be I'll kick myself for not buying more. Like I do now, when I see the $12.50 tag on the bricks I bought in the early 2000s.
Quite a drastic change from the last decade or so of ordering 25-30k a year. My remaining order from May 2020 still hasn't been filled yet.

Been trying to buy Magnum rifle primers on line for a year now.
I can only hope the sellers Taking advantage of us trying to reload get hung with those overpriced primers when this crisis finally eases

More: you are looking $150.00+. Have to be quick. I looked at them the other day, and just looked. I am don't have to have them, so I can wait.

Why can Canada and UK and even New Zealand have name brand Federal, CCI and Winchester rifle primers in bulk yet we can't in the U.S. The crisis in Ukraine is the very reason we as U.S. citizens should have the right to bear arms...every kid in school should be taught how handle firearms and taken to the shooting range in classroom fashion and must past a accuracy rating to graduate...we are looking at ww 3 and our government is worried about us having too much fire power...vote accordingly next election.

I was down to my last 70 and could not find them anywhere.
Kept looking and finally threw in the towel. Bought 300 of of Gunbroker and will keep looking.

If you will keep as eye on the Classified "reloading" portion of the form, the guys on here are great about letting you know when they pop up. You just have to be quick quick. I have gotten two bricks in the past cpl of months that way. Midway and Brownell's is where i was able to find them. Good luck!
Just a few minutes ago Brownells has small rifle BR primers and Large rifle BR primers in stock.
Also remember that 300 H&H mag and 300 Win Mag started life with Large rifle primers only!
I plan on trying to use them soon as our weather gets normal.
