Hi folks. Word out West is there's a primer shortage either here or coming. Anybody heard different?
 
I know some guys that are still using hoarded primers from "The great primer shortage" in the early 90s. Panic buying causes these shortages, but knowing that doesn't help if shelves are empty.
 
hmmm I better stock up then, I'm down to a few thousand.

It ALWAYS weems that there's a shortage though, if you buy a wholesale sports - never have any in stock
 
I hope there's no shortage. I just ran out of large pistol primers.
 
Have'nt heard diddly, probably just hype being forwarded to put another spending spree in motion.
Since the 90's I've kept no less than 3 K of my most popular primers on hand at any one time, so I can weather most of the bumps in the road.
BTW: who fed you the rumor?
I bet it's someone who has trouble keeping their shelves stocked and can't place a booking order to save their life.
 
Well, we checked around Calgary and found supplies short, then somone from Fort McMurray mentioned the same thing and inferred that retail was experiencing some difficulties securing stock.

Probably just a rumor......
 
just bought the last 3000 primers in my area. Apperently small primers are being used for Iraq (.40 and 9mm). Better stock up!
