Might have more luck finding small rifle primer brass for the rifle. Large rifle primers are scarce, and if you find them, are pricey. After looking for the past two years, I finally got a brick of CCI-200's from Powder Valley. $95, but after shipping, hazmat and Washington State 8.6% sales tax, it topped $139.

The Dalles BiMart has a bunch.
I believe my 6.5 creed brass is the small primer type. You could also go that route.

Would be nice if this becomes more common, and a person could get them by at least the brick, or preferably the case at prices around the level you indicated. I can't yet stomach paying the asking rates the last couple years. Luckily I stocked up before the most recent panic/shortage. But at some point I'll need to but my more….hopefully at lower prices.Don know if it is a fluke, or maybe a light at the end of the tunnel, but was thrilled to find Winchester small rifle primers at Sportsmen's Warehouse yesterday.

I never thought I would see primers for less than $5 per 100 again! Limit was 2 per person, and I got the last two (for a buddy that prefers Winchester). I was stoked, and hoping this is the beginning of a trend!
F!! That rifle price, plus they lost my business for baling early on Oregon.
Anyone order from this company?Ginex Small Rifle Primers: High-Quality Ignition for Superior Shooting Performance Product packaging may vary 1000ct/5000ct
Primers, ginex primers, ginex, srp, small rifle primer,
I haven't personally, but have read that others have. They do accept credit cards and the price they post seem reasonable, as well as a reasonable stock on hand. If I needed those primers, I wouldn't be afraid to order from them. On the other hand, I have been seeing signs that primers are becoming more available and prices MAY even be moderating. (Sportsman's Warehouse was recently selling Winchester SRP for $4.51 per 100, limit 2).
At the high prices they are bringing I'll stop reloading and stop shooting.
Thanks for that.
Ouch! That's a little steep, especially considering I helped a buddy get 600 Winchester small rifle primers for $30.00 including sales tax in the past week. If you are desperate, let me know, I might be able to help you out. But I am betting that the prices and availability will improve by spring. Maybe a primer for fishing trip swap, if they don't?Thanks for that.
I almost pulled the trigger on 2,000 but saw their shipping and hazmat was $51.63 and tax was $19.27 for a total of $235.68.
You know me, I hate having to pay 3-4 times the price for anything, Hell I'm still mugged gas is higher than $0.52!!!Ouch!

Until then…You know me, I hate having to pay 3-4 times the price for anything, Hell I'm still miffed gas is higher than $0.52!!!
That can be arranged, I even traded a box of Berrys 55g .224 bullets for a day on the lake. Actually it was only a half day with limits for 4.
You don't suffer from the same addiction that some of us do.
