dgrdvmPrimer out of stock
So, the increased time at home, along with all the matches being cancelled, got me down in the basement reloading USPSA and SC ammo to use once the world gets rolling again. I have enough powder and brass, thank god, and bullets are available, but some what slow in shipping.
Primers are getting to be the issue. I normally keep 4-5K on hand, and as I am going through my supply, they are not anywhere to be found. I have some "ordered" on Graf's, and waiting for the order to be processed, but not sure when that will be.
Given that there is not any material or production issues ( I assume this was a simple hoarding issue) how long do you all think it will take to restock normal inventory ?

GNfromTNHate to say it, but I just received 2,000 CCI 500 primers from Bass Pro Shops. I normally do not buy from them but they said they had primers in stock so I ordered. It was on "back order" for about 4-5 days then shipped. Received them no problem. Seems primer availability is hit an miss.
Good Luck.

Cxm - Thanks for this update...Anyone who needs primers be aware that Midway is limiting you to one box so for one box of small pistol primers it was $68.00 shipped.....I will have to wait until the one box limit is removed...Their price per box is reflective of the old pricing so it is very fair pricing...

OKCGeneIf any of you guys live near an Academy Sports, check them. I don't think they ship primers but the stores do stock them, when available.
Worth a shot, so to speak.
