My house payment hasn't changed. Gas has been the same for several years, groceries or more of a need than primers.That policy has work well for housing, gas and groceries.
You may not need primers because you don't shoot 12,000 rounds a year, like some of us do. I have more money than time left to shoot, so I am going to buy when I can find them.
I listed 1000 Remington 7&12 SR Bench Rest Primers on a local site for 75.00. NO Shipping no tax and no Haz Mat fee and got blasted for price gouging. Cheapest I found them online was 80.00 + all the add ons. Needless to say . they went back on the primer stash.
You were definitely Not price gouging, most BR primers go for between 110 and 130 dollars per thousand.

Ya gotta consider the source when dealin with AH's
I have what I consider to be my lifetime supply mostly bought in the Clinton era, so any I am buying are for friends in need.
I just bought my limit of 2 sleaves of CCI small pistol at a local retailer for $7.99. I know their secret cost code, and they are paying $6.19 per sleave.
Right next to the small pistol they had a few bricks of 1000 CCI small rifle priced at $104.95. For some reason they were only selling these by the brick, and not limited to only 2 sleaves. This was at my local BiMart and the first primers I have seen at this store in 3+ years.
I travel for work so check their other stores along my way. For some reason it seems most of the small town stores have had them for around the last year. Same prices as above. I have still not seen any large pistol or large rifle.

I went into Bas Pro yesterday and everything was 1110/k and a few at 9.90 /hundred.
A dealer friend of mine got small pistol primers (this week) for $67.89 per 1000 and large pistol primers for $67.08 +tax. He got free hazmat with his order. I must confess that, while this is still WAY too high, I broke my own rule of "DON'T BUY", and grabbed a thousand of each "just because". PLEASE DON'T TELL ANYONE I CAVED IN...!!!

I paid $29.50 a 1000 at Bimart. Managed to pick up 20 boxes of them. Never had an ammo shortage. Still have three stacks of cans in the three calibers I shoot. Pays to plan for the future

as long as you pay it, they will charge it guys.
ya gotta fight the urge.
ever wonder why prices are coming down?
someones listening to basic economic laws of business.
and those that dont...just prolong the high costs.
if everyone as a (team) just cold turkey stopped, we'd have a trump economy again.
its like this...we that know the inside story are trying to tell those that dont. and its like telling someone that poison will kill you.... but the taste of poison is just too irresistible and you drink it anyway.
i refuse new normals because they are not normal. they are new abnormals.

I hear you about the semi-auto thing. Unfortunately I never came to my senses. I did go to the range this weekend with a bolt action however. Winks

Still too much but closer to reality. I've never heard of that store.
You bought some! Ha! Good for you! I bought some small pistol primers the other day. They were $8/hundred. Which seems to be the going rate.A dealer friend of mine got small pistol primers (this week) for $67.89 per 1000 and large pistol primers for $67.08 +tax. He got free hazmat with his order.

But for those of you who think primers are more expensive, what about everything else? I just put half a tank of diesel in my truck for $75. ($4 per gallon).
Don't even get me started on food prices at the grocery store.
But also look at salaries. They have gone up as well. Starting salary of a clerk at Bucc-ee's is more than what a first year teacher will make.
I guess I don't think $8/100 for primers is an outrage.

CCI small pistol, same price today @ a N. Calif SW. $59.90 for a 1K brick or 5.99 by the 100.
They are getting the message if we (that includes me after my small infraction) DON'T BUY...!
