$54 per 1,000 primers in 2026 (SPP)

LLM's suggest that it would take aorund 20-50 Million to start a robust comercial primer plant in Canada...... It sure would be nice to make them in Canada.... Elbow's up!
 
Order $300 worth and they ship for free. Tenda is my go to place for bulk ammo. Bullseye north and solely outdoors also do free shipping on ammo, primers, powder over $250-300

I bought 10k of these last fall (same price).

They behave similar to CCI magnum SPP: quite a bit harder than Federal, need less powder to make same PF.

A lot of the slogan's of the modern left are based on an element of truth.... the main problem with "elbow's up" is we are not really a serious sovereign state capable of defending itself from all comers..... if the left is serious about the new found interest in self defence of the nation it should be extended to all levels. Self defence starts with people armed with knowledge and tools.

Not only should we have our own ammo production for Military, Police and Civilian use in Canada. we should also foster a shooting culture that trains civilians and supports an armed, educated and competent population.

I'd love to see an end to war with global wealth and opportunity in the near future, but till then it makes sense to be ready and capable of handling Emergencies and Threats.

Canada should also buy back the one powder producer that still operates here and then we could price control any exports
General Dynamics has no issue with using our resources for a US labeled product that cannot be produced on mainland USA and then hosing us when we beg for it to be delivered back north where it started from. And being in Quebec I bet GD gets money from Alberta to operate, second boot to other nad

The left are never serious about anything because they live in a fantasy world of "feewings" that is totally disconnected from the real world where effort is required to make things happen.

The left WISHES stuff to happen because they want it to but they haven't got a clue about actually making those things happen. Their pointy little heads would explode if they attempted to understand how things really work and the work and effort required to make those things happen.
 
I tried Ginex SPPs, never again, loading takes longer and more effort, then there is no 100% ignition. Not worth it even for shooting practice.
They now have Federal SPPs on sale at $100/1000pcs, that's a good deal. I loaded on Remington SPPs a while back and they are a pleasure to work with and they always go off. Winchester should be good too but haven't used them for years. Fiocchi were pain to load but they fired. CCI are great but not for a light sprung gun.
 
It is healing! at least a bit.

I was able to buy powder sub $100 again.

I did pick up some Winchester LRPM for $15/100 count. I haven't tried them before, but that seems like a reasonable price. I will try them out and see how they compare to the CCI 250s I usually buy.

Was xborder a few weeks ago, to visit a friend. Stopped in a store and got my allowable max, after xchange I was paying 103 for fed SRP(M) . Granted if the trip was just for them, it would be a total loss. But as it was a bonus side quest its a win!

How do you handle getting them across the border without being a scofflaw?

Just don’t get caught by US border customs with them before you enter Canada. That’s the part that is illegal. It’s a stupid system. Canada says it’s legal to bring in but US says it’s illegal to export.
