I have been watching the usual websites daily for months and haven’t seen primers in stock.  I know people are selling old stock on bidding sites.   Has anyone here actually seen newly manufactured primers in stock recently?

I was able to get 1000 small pistol from Midway within the last two weeks, premium price though.

I have. Scheels have them occasionally. Only CCI though.

Yes.  I got primers locally this year so far in January & again in March.  Very little selection & limits on amount you can buy.

I was able to get 2,000 Federal #200 spm's from my local LGS two weeks ago.

They also had some CCI #500 spp's but I was 20 minutes to late to get them.

They were the only primers they had received in months and they are a very large distributor of firearms & reloading supplies.

On a side note they were only $53 per 1K.  I paid $62 last November at a different store for 1K Winchester spp.

2K of small rifle primers from a local place about a month ago. Red box Winchester but on the pricey side.

Has anyone been having any issues with newer primers?

I got 10K CCI 41s last year sometime and Ive had enough failures to fire that I was coming here to ask if anyone else has noticed this too.

Found some Federal Gold Medal Match Small Rifle primers today at Bass Pro.

I've been seeing them at our academy once a month as well but with a 2 (100) pack limit.  SRP, SPP, LRP, and LPP

I got a case last year, but they went to the back of the stash as I try to rotate stock. You have a lot #?

I scored 1000 CCI Small rifle magnums from Midway last week.
It was a total chance thing.
By the time I called my dad to let him know they were already gone...

I have noticed the Win LRP red box seem to be fitting loose in most primer Pockets where the Blue box Federal and older blue box Wn LRP fit tight.

Sportsman's Warehouse near me periodically has primers in stock. They limit to one sleeve per purchase so it's not really helping deepen the stash much.

I also got 1000 Win 209 primers from Powder Valley not long ago.

Found some at BPS, Scheels locally last month or so (several times at BPS)...  I missed one big drop at scheels they say they got “several hundred thousand” few weeks ago.

Grabbed some LRPs at Natchez late March and scored a few of the recent Midway drops.

They’re out there but you gotta work at it, stalking the “team availability” thread works (you need email subscription notifications and to be QUICK.  Yamahawarrior89 has a line on everything that comes into stock and posts shit daily.

Look alive around 8-9am for most places.  Midway has been staggering out the availability and I believe trying to fight the bots.  They’ll show in stock, but can’t add to cart.  Then 10-15 mins later they’ll be available (either them delaying or adding more quantity).
