Default Good deal on primers

Found a great deal if you need primers and don't mind selling a kidney.

When you want to load your own but want to make sure it costs more than factory ammo.

Jeez, I would be happy to get a mere $80 a hundred…
Nice if you can get suckers to bite.

I have seen a lot of Ginex LR primers available on line for what I think is an insane price of $25 a sleeve.

I had one guy pestering me for primers about 18 months ago, and I told him about a store an hour away, that had stock at $100/brick. Of course he didn't buy any, and he was pestering me again 6 months later, when no store had any. I finally got tired of him pestering me, and told him, that when he was ready to pay $1000/ brick, I would
sell him some. That was the last time that he pestered me .lol

I have helped out some friends that were stuck, for small
rifle and magnum primers since, because I had enough
to spare, but I get tired of certain people that won't help themselves, so when they ask, they get my" I don't want to sell" price.

Thankfully SR primers are relatively easy to find.

See a Tesro newsletter saying they have Ginex LRP, under 100.00 a brick. No idea what freight is on them from there, not sure I want to know. Would be curious if anyone has bought primers or powder out of Ontario lately, and what they got dinged on them. My first instinct, is not under 50.00, and nobody would admit to it anyway.

I just ordered 6 lbs of powder from Higginson’s… UPS was $48. Not bad at all.
