Gun show report

[Curt]

Hit a show this morning, not very crowded or crazy, maybe the nice weather? economy? There was one guy with a table full of primers, Win's any flavor you would like for $60/1000 but he was the only one with them.My buddy was able to negotiate a fair buy on 1420 rounds of 7.62X39.

$60 a 1000? The last ones I bought were $27 about a month ago.
The last show I was at, last weekend, was kind of quiet also. Maybe it is going to slow down now?

[Matt Anthony]

I have seen Win. LR primers at $75.00 a thousand, and no bought them from the vendor. He would not lower his price, and took them back home as no one would pay the price.

Local reloading supplier is still rationing out primers and has no .38-158 plated bullets. Cast SWC's and WC's. I'm going there and buy what I can. Hope this component shortage doesn't last much longer.

Nice Icon swede!

I had that bad JUJU feeling last year so I dropped about $1200 on primers and powder at Camp Perry so I am in fair shape for a couple years. I was able to find a .308 147's and .22 55/62 local pretty cheap.I will have to re-stock my match bullets by fall hoping to find them at Perry..

Thanks Curt.

I bought some Wolf LR primers a few months back, $18 per 1000.
They work just fine

[Mudcat]

Wolf LR at 18/1000 is/was below wholesale, so you got a bargain. And, they are kickbutt primers too. Of course, we havent been able to get Wolf primers now since the election...supposedly a bunch sitting in Customs that cant, for some unknown reason, get out. Go figure.
