As of this morning Powder Valley had Ginex LRP:

I have used Unis Ginex primers for several years and find them top quality. Not lost on me that we can get these from Bosnia -- not exactly a million miles from Ukraine, while all our LRPs go East............

I have been buying from AR for some time and have found they give value and are reliable. I have purchased primers from them but most of my spend has been deman primed cases in various calibers.

He is not. He says in his adds that he can't ship.

Powder Valley has Winchester #41 5.56 Military primers available right now. Many local and online places have Winchester 5.56 ammo (M855 & M193) available. Winchester is the Government contractor that runs the Lake City ammo plant for military ammo production. They are allowed to sell any ammo or components that are excess to Government contracts.
This would lead a reasonably intelligent person to conclude that Ukraine, and Government contracts are not affecting the supply of small rifle primers, or the ammo.

Explain how I can purchase primers half a world away for 60.00 per 1000 with shipping.
I'd like to find out. Pass on their information and we could possibly get in touch with them and ask them.

Can't, information is out there. I'm not going to shoot myself in the foot, and have to get in line.
Its like a secret fishing spot, or hunting spot would you share and have to fight the crowd??
Sorry
That's ok, I'm good. However I do have 30,000 Tula LRMP's I really don't need.

Outside the US? Who is creating the export and import licenses?

shooting bot is showing 68 entries for in stock small rifle primers and 12 entries for in stock large rifle primers.
These listings only include stores that sell on line and that have been added to the stores that are scanned => there are many places not included in the inventory check.

Then why ask?
Because I don't shoot LRMP'S anymore, and I wanted too.
Is that good enough for you?
I've switched over to CCI LRP's.
These days all I buy are srp's.

I do not have any stores near me that sell reloading components.
That said I am so tired of looking for primers in stock online to purchase I have decided that all my cartridges will until the shortage ends be using my glut of various magnum primers and Russian military primers as long as they do not need small rifle primers. Is it ideal? No it is not. But jerks with fat bank accounts and connections sadly are hording and sucking up everything in sight!
My son will be home from Syria in a few months and I will have match ammo to go have some fun ready by then in spite of some of you on this site. We have no business in Syria not in the 1944, late 1950's and not now!
I have been reloading 300WM since 1995-ish so I have a lot of magnum primers. It is too easy to work up a new load much easier than trying to get primers with out resorting to jack-a$$es on auction sights scalping primers to people with more money than brains!
I stop just short of wishing that hoarders and scalpers would burn in hell forever. It is too easy and decent to allow other's to play too. There is no need for it either. Even as a competitor and hunter I do not feel compelled to hoard and keep other's from having fun as well! Hoarding is not moral or ethical no matter what you are hoarding.
I have no doubt that there are places that have primers but I actual have a life and do not have time to scour the internet daily for primers!
I am pretty sure hoarding falls under either greed or gluttony even if not money or food. On top of that knowing and actively preventing other's from getting what they need while fine by secular standards is not fine by divine standards.
I will try to investigate this "bot" that looks for you. It is a very interesting idea.
Cheer's!

Local shops have gone from about $120 per 1K SRP --yesterday saw out the door CCI SRP $80 so it is getting better than it was--I have been able to get all the Varget I want at $50 lb out the door
Other powders showing up and in stock all still around $50 --Zero 4895 anywhere --think it is gone forever Precision Reloading had Starline brass in stock and discounted to near old prices this week
22LR ammo running out the ying yang everywhere I shop and prices dropped a lot
It is getting better--question is when to buy back in--now? Wait for lower and maybe miss out because of the next unforeseen "disaster"? Over buy knowing you can sell excess later if things go south again? ( better than CD's) Who knows?
Meanwhile the very high end custom rifle shop down the street has staff working around the clock on a never ending stream of orders for Very exotic $$$$$$$ customs! There is so much money out there.............

Define hoarding. Several years ago we had a 22 lr drought. I refused to pay the prices advertised. I reduced rimfire shooting for two years to conserve what I had, and when stock came back up and prices dropped I focused on stocking up on ammo that was on sale! I stopped at around 30,000 rounds. Figuring that would see me through any future shortages. Besides, when there’s a shortage, they make excellent birthday gifts! I actually ran into a couple of guys who bought 22s for their kids, and the GSs didn’t have ammo. I gifted them 500 each,( I don’t believe in owning a firearm that I haven’t shot!).
One of the reasons we reload is (or has been) is value. What is wrong with buying components and stocking up when there is a surplus and prices are low? I bought 10,000 CCI 450s at $27 per thousand if I recall correctly, wish I had bought 50,000 CCI 500s.
I try not to focus on the people snagging primers for a quick profit, people are always trying for easy money. It’s no worse than hookers standing on the curb looking for…. “John”.

You said it very well. I also do the same. I've given away over 1000 rounds of 22lr mostly as gifts.
I purchase in bulk in order to have a surplus so do the road I'm not running around saying, man I wish I had bought more. There is definitely a difference between hoarding and surplus, and some don't know that difference.
A surplus is definitely a good bartering tool. That day will come when trading an amount of something you no longer have use for and somebody else does, and they have the same issue.
