Powder has not been to difficult ...Saw & bought a Jar of Trail Boss & several jars of Titegroup , and price was fair and in line.

Primers are unobtanium around here & I can't bring myself to bid into the frenzy on GB  :-\ ........ yet  ::)

What I have on hand will have to do  :(

I am not some conspiracy theorist and I apologize if you took my comment this way. I am just curious as to why there seems to be a huge shortage of primers

Because ammo factories are working a maximum capacity because of the ammo shortage. Report I heard was nearly all of the primers being made are going into factory ammo so that leaves very little to get shipped out for reloading supplies.

As a former major supplier, Remington is now out of the ammunition and component supply chain also.

One of local gun shops I regularly visit was out of Large Pistol Primers and then about a week ago they got some in. So it appears they are trickling in.

That is encouraging, and a shift back to rationality.

OK Children.

What EXACTLY is it about "No Politics" that you failed to understand, and continued to violate?

all political posts (including my littel joke) have been deleted and the thread is locked.
