It's been pretty good lately at a couple places near me. One place has just about everything, and a lot of it..even 100 bricks of 1000 LRP.

I even picked up some CCI 41 today at Sportsman's Warehouse, and I haven't seen those in months. Unfortunately, they limit 200 per day...so I need to go keep going back until I get them al, lol.
Sportsmens just changed their primer policy to 1000 per day, at least in AZ
 
Still 100% air rifle shooter here. Total cost per round is $15 to $25 per container of 200 slugs. Air is free where I shoot (with a $200 annual membership) because I bought my air rifle there.

I spoke with a friend at Winchester last week. Distributors and dealers are still the price gougers here. Dealers are paying distributors two/three times what the distributors are paying Winchester, and dealers are still doubling their cost from distributors. That is where $100 per thousand prices are coming from.
From where I stand, it's hard to tell if the anti-firearms crowd or the Distributor/Dealer crowd is doing more to try and eliminate our 2nd A freedoms.

That's actually good to hear because that means if people would quit paying these prices we might eventually see prices get back to near normal levels. I don't understand all this buying at these prices, I buy absolutely just what I need right now and was luckily stocked up pretty well before all this craziness hit.
 
I Almost fell on my back now when I saw the new prices on CCI BR2 primers over here, basically 230 US $ per 1000. FML
Luckily I don't have to buy primers any time soon
 
I was told by my local reloading supplies store that Hodgdon now has total distribution of all powders. I was told that all of the powders come from them no matter the brand. That is a monopoly.

Who are they owned by?

Correct. They are owned by Nammo. Although I am not sure if Hodgdon isn't the distributor for them.

And they are not price gouging as far as I can tell. At least from what I've heard at least not to the extent of the others.
