    Not local or I'd give you a few. Might try Wal-Mart or some of the big-box stores. Some that don't usually carry that stuff have it this time of year.

    While not ideal, you can buy some primed 12ga hulls from BPI for $16/100. I don't believe you will run into any hazmat fee this way. You can pop the primers out fairly easily with a punch. If you're like me, 100 should last several seasons of ML hunting for sure.

    Since I just had the back operation I can't ride that far. Even Hampton is a little too far - and I do have some extra small pistol primers to trade is someone is very local or can come to my home

    I'd ship you a few if it wasn't a headache. Like others mentioned, check with sporting goods stores or Walmart. They should have some specifically for BP.

    Walmart has had 100 rounds of 2 3/4’s 12 gauge, 7.5 shot dove and trap loads in stock for $21.99 hits about every time go into the store. I picked up 2 boxes. You could buy a box n pop primers out of those and have shot, powder, hulls, and wads for other projects.

    BPI (Ballistics Products Inc) Had Cheddite 209 primers in stock last week for mid 35$ per thousand.
    They'll get more, keep checking.

    Also check the lower cost rio hulls, new hulls, primed, and no hazmat. Punch out 10 or 15 and your good to go.
    I truly believe we need to get back to basics.

    Get right with the Lord.
    Get back to the land.
    Get back to thinking like our forefathers thought.


    May the Lord bless you and keep you. May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you
    and give you His peace. Let all of the earth – all of His creation – worship and praise His name! Make His
    praise glorious!

    Left over from my Trap Reloading days, I have a NIB 100 W209 Winchester primers. I'm located in the Annapolis area near Ritchie Hwy. Could do a face-to-face if you're interested. Price is FREE!

    I don't think you can send them through the mail legally can you?

    Yes you can ship but must be hazmat certified, properly marked and cannot ship via USPS.
