I just went by my rod and gun club to check on primers and powder. The powder has gone up a little but they are rationing it. The scary part was that the primers were $60.00 for a thousand! I can remember paying that for 5,000 primers! When will it end?

Your luck to get that many. Here you are limited to 400 per visit/week.

I know what you mean, I did score 3000 small rifle $50 a 1000.
Still have an open order with Cabalas, they were still $20 a 1000 in may, but they still haven't filled it, open and pending.
So we'll see what happens.

I don't reload, yet, but I've been watching the crazy deal with ammo and primers. I went to a gun show yesterday, and all I saw anywhere was small pistol primers. I've been to one or two shows, before this one and saw NO primers.
