Federal primer update
Some friends of mine were at the Shot Show, and asked the Federal people about the lack of primers available from them for public consumption. They indicated that they are 1.5 years behind in production and that they are so busy with military contracts, that they don't have time to manufacture for us reloaders. FS

My local guy has them on the shelf and I ordered a bunch from Grafs in November. Didn't know there was a shortage.

I put in an order at Grafs last year for 5000 Federal 215s. Took a couple of months but it was eventually filled.
