Thousands of primers

it's to my understanding that all large magnum primers are back ordered 2 years due to government contracts
I don't know about that. I seem to be able to find them when I need them. I have bought 5000 over the last 10 months. Most recent was a week ago.
 
We all love capitalism, and this is the other edge of the same blade. It will return to a new normal, which will still feel like BOHICA pricing when compared to the Trump years.
I prefer it much more than any other economic system.
 
I was at Scheels in Missoula yesterday. Like it was, about a month ago when I was there. Thousands & thousands of primers. $85 to $110 per brick , depending on what primer you selected. Also shot shell primers, $12.50 per sleeve, $125 per brick. Lots of folks looking, none buying. Everyone's eyes were just kind of glassed over. Like in a trance. All those primers , so close, but yet soooo far away.
Yeah every time I go in there I think maybe I should just get a box. Then I remember I have some at home and when I get desperate I know where they are. I might eat up a bunch of my small pistol and small rifle here real soon. So I might get desperate.
 
No wonder we can't find any.......You got um all!!......LOL!!
Carry on brother, we do what we gotta do...
I have actually been tempted to buy more but have tried not to buy more than I shoot in a couple years.
 
A few months before SHTF.
