My local dealer says primers are selling like hot cakes and he can't locate a supplier that has rifle and pistol primers. Here we go again. Said when his small supply is gone, that's it, at least for awhile, don't know when supply will catch up to demand.

In my local areas, Fed 210M are very difficult to find. I checked all the larger places such as Sportsman's Warehouse and Cabelas. Not there! Had to check on the smaller shops who have to charge a bit more to stay in business. Bingo! Bought two bricks.

Come to Ohio. There are plenty of primers in Ohio. Admittedly, Federal 210M & 215M primers have been a bit scarce but several weeks ago a local sporting goods store had several thousand of the 215Ms on the shelf.
Just took in two .243 accuracy workup jobs and had a devil of a time finding brass--Cabelas, Bass Pro, and Sportsmen's Warehouse all out. So, I just decided to order it--well, the first 4 places I checked were out too, but ended up getting some from Natchez.
During my roamings, also noted that shelves are either bare or very thinly stocked for bullets, brass, powder--all components. Not sure if it is because of a scarcity, or the economy and companies trying to hold down their investment in inventory on the shelf.
