    Primers for sale

    Have just returned form the Dale City, VA. show. While there, a gentelman approached my table offering small rifle primers for carbine reloading. I ask "How Much?" "$50.00 per thousand firm for Winchester and/or Federal". A while later I saw him again. He had sold out. Did I miss out on a great deal or what????

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    Since there are no small rifle primers anywhere's to be found, only you can answer whether they are worth $50.00 or not.

    Last weekend I saw aisles full of various primers for $49/M and for $36/M, at stores within a hundred miles of each other. I checked for someone else this morning and didn't seen any avail. on a few large online store sources.

    If you need them, then it's a deal!... JMO.

    I'm trying to wait before buying any primers and I hope the supply loosen's up and the price drops a little. As I usually buy by the case that would be pretty expensive for a case of each size.

    I was at the WAC show in Puyallup, WA on Saturday. I saw more primers available their then I had seen for several months. Prices ranged from $40 to $60 per brick. I bought a brick of CCI small pistol for $40. He had several bricks available, but I was just replacing what I had used in the last three months. Maybe supplies are starting to return back to normal, although two different vendors told me they were just receiving orders placed last Nov & Dec.

    You are seeing more primers now as reloading has always been mainly a winter hobby. Less people just load less in the summer months. Been selling reloading equipment and supplies for 23 yrs. It is just the way it is.
