This is typical of the front line vs. management. A rumor starts and then everybody takes it for gospel.
I just inventoried my primer stash; 5500 primers of assorted types, LPP, LRP, LMRP, LMPP, SPP, benchrest large rifle primers and a few shotshell primers (I don't reload shotshells, I think I bought these for perimeter traps or something like that). So plenty of primers for most of what I want to reload, which will be small quantities.
The only primers I don't have are small rifle primers - I will have to get some when things stop being crazy. A few of the packages had price tags on them, ranging from $12-$17.
I have plenty of Trail Boss, H110, LeverEvolution and BLC-2, but I am low on BullsEye, no Unique, no Universal or 2400. So I do need to stock up on some of the popular powders that are good for various cartridges, but I can wait - as I have said elsewhere, I mostly only reload special low power loads, and the Trail Boss is good for those.

Did you miss the $250 per 1K sales? I thought it was bad during obummer.
Did you learn sharing I'm school today? On line of course.Sportsman's did the same thing - at least for a while. I think it was maybe at least partially about shoplifting.
If BiMart isn't going to carry primers, they might as well stop carrying powder and projectiles too.
I was just going thru boxes in the shop to find ammo and found a number of boxes of primer and powder. I knew I had some, but I did not know I had that many. Going to put it all in one MTM container and do an inventory so I know what I have.

I am going out to confirm what I have then I am probably going to put up an advert to trade Large pistol magnum (CCI 350) for small rifle so even out what I have - which is about 1K each, except for 2K of LP magnum. If I can trade for SRP then I would have what I need for the minimal loading that I do. Then later I will stock up on primers when they are not in short supply, for the next time we have a shortage.
Just made an offer on some powder and will keep any eye on other powders, but only at reasonable prices. I will pickup some projectiles too if they become available.
And now there is less competition.

If true, prices of primers on secondary market just went up.

What's your thoughts?
Maybe I'll go to Gunbroker. Free shipping... including the hazmat fee?
Most GB sales of primers are sent via UPS without paying the hazmat fee. Not a problem until something happens in transit and they pin it on the primers. Then it's a real problem.

Over here in central Oregon I'm glad to hear this. The Bend SW is widely considered be the worst managed in the state. I sit over here and drool when Cabellas and Bass Pro show more in-stock inventory at better prices and SW sits with empty shelves, poor selection, snotty help, and the highest prices in town when they do have it.
Damn man! You did good. I'm on notifications from Midway on every pistol primers they show and no notifications so far.
Wonder what the laws are for such a thing. Could someone open a physical store front and sell powder and primers on consignment? Wonder what laws and licenses would be required.
