I was doing some clean-up in my reloading room and started going through some plastic containers I haven't opened in a while and found these. 17K in small pistol primers as well as some small rifle and large pistol primers.



I mostly reload 9mm these days and was getting ready to bite the bullet and get more. I feel like I struck gold. Big Grin

You must have a bigger reloading room than I do.

My better half seems to think it's too big and attempts to use it for her stuff. I have to watch her like a hawk. Smile

Just because something is legal to do doesn't mean it is the smart thing to do.

I drive to Michigan tomorrow. A semi-distant relative told me to stop by, she has some ‘powder & primers’ from an older gentleman she wants to give me.

I have no idea of the type or amount. Just in case I’ll bring a bottle along I know they like. If they break the threshold of 2 lbs or 1k primers, they get the bottle.

I wish I had your "problem"

I’m back from my MI trip, yes I did give them the bottle.

The stash was 2000k+ .224”, 55 grn bullets, 500 30 cal, a 25 lb bag of #6 shot. There was no reloading powder.

Down the rung was some cheap, plastic AR Mags, a few Ruger mini-14 mags, a S&W pistol box in good shape. Then 3000+ CCI 209 shotgun primers, none for pistol or rifle. Then a few books, bullet mold, and a bunch of previously reloaded 223 & 30-06 cases.

Anyway, going through some of it now. I don’t reload shotgun, so plan to send them down the road.
