    Homemade primer tubes

    Go to Mc master Carr and order the following:
    89965k39
    89965k46
    92375a005
    These are 3 foot lengths or you can spend a little more and get 6 footers to cut your own tubes. Cheaper than Grainger.

    I bought some here (small primer):

    And they have the correct size tube for Large Primers, I just didn't need any.

    Those first two did not show on the page that opened when searching for the part number. To avoid confusion, what was the od and id of each? 8996k431 has an id of .18 and od of .25, also 9924k12 is the same size but a different spec material. 89965K471 has an id of .215 but an od of 5/16. My tubes are packed away and would takes days to find and then put away so I can't check actual size of my RCBS tubes. Until I can find them I would have to guess as to clearance needed to feed smoothly and proper od to fit my bench mount primer tool.

    Go back and type in the number and search. Then look in the upper left corner of page and you will see that they have changed the number. 89965k39 = 89965k471 .

    There is always these guys too.. 6 ft lengths though... www.zoro.com

    They are technically owned by granger but usually have better prices than grainger, low overhead, especially if you wait for a promo code of 25% off and spend over 50 to get free shipping.

    I miss Enco, free shipping, 25% off, $25 min order. I'd save my want list until they had one of these sales....MSC ain't nowhere as DIY friendly as Enco was.
