Small rifle primers

Don’t buy more than you need.
I see and hear of folks buying the max they can at the time, then say as much as they really didn’t need any. Yet they run from site to site or store to store buying, then complain about the price.
Spoke to a gent last week that said he and the wife do a 170 mile circle buying primers, gas was so high they thought they were going to only be able to do it once a week now, WOW!
Be part of the solution and not part of the problem.

I like to eat, yet I hear almost nothing about grocery prices. Folks complain about gas prices, yet they will set in line with their vehicles running to get a $12 cup of coffee, all the time texting on their $1800 phone. We have become our own worst enemy.
 
Some things for reloading are appearing in stock here and there an d yes prices are up...way up in some cases. Al though this makes no one happy you better get used to it. You can protest, get mad and refuse to buy but the reality of it is someone behind you in line will pay the price and that gives retailers little reason to come down. I don't think it 's reasonable to expect pre pandemic prices to return in the next 2-4 yrs if ever. For that to happen there would need to be many.. MANY political changes, policies overturned, and regulations to be overturned. There are many factors driving prices up, consumer demand is only a small part of it. The powers that be are making it more and more costly for materials to be sourced, The producers of reloading mats are not rolling in massive profits during this madness. They are struggling to cope with a government that is actively doing everything to keep its doors open. It sucks all the way around for everyone.

This is why it's good to stock up when supplies are good and prices are low and dig into your stash during times of shortage. Particularly with something like primers. Even in the new, extra bulky, packaging, it's amazing how many you can fit in a .50 cal ammo can.
 
If any of you guys live in western Pa thers a place in Ebensburg called CAC supply they are a middle man company but sell to the public i just purchased 2 bricks of CCi 250's for 66$ each and a 8lb jug of RL26 for 275 but they are suffering just the same as everybody else. They put ther prices up to but i dont think its as bad as other places are
+1 for CAC They also have OK prices on powder
 
Y'all realize that any online retailer worth their salt is running software that tells them how many hits (looks) a product gets? Just looking keeps the prices high. If you don't need them, don't look for them.
