Is anyone getting primer availability notices from Midsouth or Midway?

[binazone]

I have had "back in stock" notification requests for every/any type of primer with both these companies for several months but have yet to receive a single notification. I just checked and, yes, all notifications are still active.

Is anyone getting notifications from them or is it the case that Midsouth and Midway just can't get any primers?

Nope. Nada for me. I suspect it'll be a while yet.

VooDoo

MidwayUSA alerted me a week ago about 5k 450’s being back in stock. They were gone in 30 seconds.

You practically have to be on their site, clicking refresh at this point.

Thanks for the replies, all. Funny how I didn't get an alert about the 450s- they're on my list as well.

I got an Ammoseek alert about some CCI APS...maybe 450s...last week. I think it was MidSouth, might have been midway. By the time I clicked the two links to get to the website, they were gone.

Most likely people are using bots to purchase. Zero chance any human will ever actually be able to see an email, open it, go to website, and check out before automated bots buy it all.

I get the ones from Midway...they seem to come ~2 weeks or so. I’ve scored some small pistol primers but not as lucky with the 450’s. When I called the last time they told me the list of emails receiving notifications is so long by the time their server sends them all out (depending on where you are in the mailing order) they are likely already sold out. Unfortunately she couldn’t tell me how their server determines the “order” they go out in.

What is a bot, and I guess I need to get one so I can get some primers

 

[BullGear]

My guess is that most of the primers are going to ammo manufacturers. Not enough to go around, so the big guys are getting the limited supplies.

I keep trying but no luck in past 6 weeks. Set chances are local forums and hope for an estate sale

I received a few emails and sold they’re sold out before you can even load the page.

however, I’ve also seen people posting on here they’ve received notifications for primers that I’ve had notifications set for and I never received any emails so...
