Some primers I stumbled upon this week. Sometimes it's nice to have friends looking out for you. One of the bricks is full one has one gone.

They may be what some call vintage.
If I needed them, I would shoot them.

Agreed, I'm not a collector. I'll use them if I get to the point I need them.

I remember primers, you used to be able to buy them at a store!

I don't see any water damage on the packaging.
They're probably still good if they look OK and don't have any corrosion going on..

even if they did get moisture damage if dried well they will work, that's been my experience with some modern primers left out in damp shed, Florida humidity.

Last month I tripped across a case of SP primers at a local gun shop. They had literally just been delivered. I bought 3 bricks and paid .10 cents a primer. I remember when surplus rifle ammo could be had at half that price.

Later,

I hope I never live long enough to ever pay 10 cents each for primers!

Let's hope that we won't look back on that price wistfully!

Most primers are 20 cents apiece now:-(
