    LG Pistol Primers at MidwayUSA

    MidwayUSA has CCI large pistol primers I stock as of about 5min ago…
    Just a heads up to anyone needing any.
    I wasn’t sure where to put this, sorry if it’s wrong.

    Nice of them to honor their "notify me" customers with a heads-up...

    Nice that they have some, but you have to be pretty desperate to pay $77 plus a full HAZMAT for 1k primers.

    Yeah I didn’t get a “Notify me” either. A buddy gave me a heads up.
    With a limit of one, and hazmat, it was too at steep for me too, but I know some people really need some.

    My buddy said Hazmat was only $12.99…

    I saw, but i'm done buying any primers at twice the price. Hopefully people will stop buying them so that prices return to normal.

    I bought them, you never know if or when you'll see them again. The primers aren't priced high, the money is worthless.
    Only a fool would attempt it, and God help me I am that fool.

    It won't return to "normal" till the shelves are full and they can keep up with demand. I don't think we will ever see $30-35 per K ever again.

    I WAS desperate, so I bought just one brick. $77 is way too much, but I know some folks that have paid over $100 for a brick.

    The primers available are CCI. I did not receive a notice, but I have the notifications set for only Winchester primers.

    I think Larry has been taking personal financial lessons from Wayne.

    My condolences. Small rifle is my weak point. Just bought a 300 BLK upper and my usage more than doubled.

    The last announcement from Winchester in the spring said primers would go up 25%. The new normal should be in the $40-45/k range. That is not bad IMO. Fuel is up more than that.
