Not sure if they do or not but I don't think my local gunshop drives 2 hrs each way for pick-up only. I guess all you can do is call and ask.

Federal primers have been out of stock several times over the years.That is why I buy a few thousand at a time when they are available.I usually have at least 5000 on hand,as I do now.

I just picked up 5000+ of federal 215M from wholesale sports in Edmonton about a month or so ago. I got supper lucky, and very happy

Because of Federal's issues with keeping supply up, even in the early 1990's I quite using them all together.
Try CCI and Winchesters.
FWIW the Win. WLRM is now the "hottest magnum" primer out there, regardless of the 20+yr. old passage in a few loading manuals.
If you cant reliably get them, why bother using them, find the more available stuff, re-work your loads and move on.

I personally will not use CCI primers after having a few duds several years ago.I find that Federal primers work well for me,so I just stock up when they are available,so I have never run short.I do the same with powders as they too seem to be hard to get at times.Besides,if you buy small amounts as you need them,you are constantly changing lot #s,which I prefer not to do.

Its for a .338LM, every load that I found was with 215m. Anyway I still have 2 month before I get my new baby, if I cant find any 215m by this time, I will have to try something else

I use CCI LR magnum primers for my .338LM loads with zero problems.

They have over 5000 215 mag primers at wholesale in Saskatoon, i bought another thousand just because of this thread.

Cheers!!
