I reload my primers, just pound out the dent . put some match head material in and put the anvil back in place with super glue. I call them (match primers). Soo easy.

I've always wondered what constitutes a "match" primer, now I know!

I know this is a small primer thread but I just bought 1k BR2s online from Cabelas. Better to have something than nuttin.

Don't need no stinking primers for some of my stuff,got two that use FLINT.

We might all be using flintlocks, pouring our own lead balls and making our own powder sooner than the producers of Mad Max envisioned.

Anybody use the 205m AR primers in a ppc?

Store my stuff using one of then food storage machines that sucks the air out of the bag.

I used to do the same thing, but the pointy end of the bullets kept poking holes in the bags.

You need to get point protectors for them.

I used to chide my son about having to reload caps for his cap pistol. Are they still available.

Primer shortage-

ASSRCO is on strike at 5 copper mines in the USA. . A major producer of copper. A subsidiary of a multi-billion-dollar Mexico City based mining conglomerate, Grupo Mexico.

No copper = no primers, no bullets, no brass.

I thought Mad Maxx was in 2021..?

Looks like replacements were doing their jobs anyway.

What??? Explain?

 

[fyrewall]

I have a modest stock of all kinds of primers but due to home & travel restrictions beyond my control shooting has been restricted to less than 100 rounds per week with more restrictions/controls expected. I successfully acquired the last 100 Rem 7 1/2 primers from my local Sportsman's Warehouse for $1.99 (100). Shooting my AR is temporary history (I hope). My policy is to never hoard but to replace periodically what I use every month. This situation is an aggravation!

There has been a rash of boating accidents, lately!
