P210What’s the deal with primers?
I’m in NY and met an old shooting buddy for lunch yesterday. One of the first things he asked was if I had any primers sitting around my place here I’d be willing to part with at a steep discount from today’s prices. I had no idea I was sitting on a gold mine but I’ll keep the gold so I won’t end up buying them back for more someday.

80+ thousand on hand,and 25 thousand #35/50BMG primers.
That's more than a good start, it's a pretty fair pile of primers.

That sounds about right.....maybe a little low, but not bad.

sourdough44Well, one is supposed to ‘buy low & sell high’. I feel we’re coming off the peak, 1k spp are starting to show up, $66-85 or so. Is wasn’t long ago I think $100+ would I been easy to get.

Bob RII saw small pistol primers in stock at one of the shops I frequent. $90 per 1k. The first ones I’ve seen on the shelf in a while.
