What prices are your local area store selling large rifle primers for (when they have these onumbtonium components available)

From what I have seen and heard from retailers who have Federal 210 & 215 are only selling them by 200 to 300 at one time. Privately, between $300 to $1,000 for a brick.
 
RWS $200 for a brick plus shipping and tax. Nothing local. Just keep looking and every now and then somebody gets some and does not try to gouge. Jump on it as anything other than Ginex for $200 per brick is rare.

Not to derail the thread but how are the prices of loaded ammo looking ? Depending on what you shoot it gets to a point where reloading no longer saves any money.


Note: Just looking at an auction site and LRM are at about $40+ per sleeve and the auction is still going.

Have to laugh as my stockpile has gone up more than Gamestop did when the big run up happened lol....

Wouldn't it be nice if Canada developed some/more(?) military/ammo manufacturing capabilities. With the millions of taxpayer money that Trudeau just promised to Ukraine yesterday, even some of that could have been used to invest in creating some manufacturing plants in Canada. Then we'd at least have something for our money, and we and Ukraine could benefit from the increased capabilities.
 
Mid 2023 bought 4K of Campro LRP at $149 per 1K plus shipping and tax.

Around the same time I got a email notification that Tenda just received shipment of Fed LRP. Went online about an hour later and all sold out.
 
$16.95 last batch (CCI 250 & Rem 9.5M) per hundred @ CGN sponsor Nechako Outdoors

My buddy got some Fed 215 @ P&D in Edmonton for $28 per hund

What a kidder you are Mike!
Something like that would interrupt Trudy's menstrual cycle and he'd have to see his gynecologist.

There was a good reason for that. Private industry concerns can manufacture those items much cheaper and usually better than a government-run facility.

It's only when the government becomes involved does it all goes to hell.

Right now, every government in the world depends on Private companies to manufacture their military needs. It's much cheaper and less redundant.

Much of the present situation has to do with the world situation of supply and demand.

We just can't compete against governments when it comes to paying the price to be first in line for such things as reloading components and the materials they're made from.

I have a truck load of German DAG blanks I bought a while back for .15 cents a piece. They are plastic and boxer primed, so I snipped the ends off, removed the powder and salvaged the primers.
