That's pricey.
A friend bought 8lbs H4350 at a local shop for $300 last month, and I thought that was high. Now it seems reasonable.

Heh I've got shit tons of powder which is why I did not buy at that price. What was interesting was all the other powders were normalish price of 280 per 8 pounds it was just the 4350 they had at a premium.
picked up 10,000 SRP's yesterday, $110 per brick shipped. They won't last long once they hit my shelves. Folks will snap them up
Ehh primers are dropping in price look at the auction sites... 650 for 5k cci srp magnums is way less than it was
I could have picked up 5K SPP this morning at Natchez, but at $85/k with $18haz.. I couldn't pull the trigger.
They still have a bunch in stock: https://outdoors.natchezss.com/products/reloading-primers

If you click on the the "In Stock Only" tab, it shows ZERO primers of any kind in stock, even though the thumbnails have an "Add To Cart" button.
Two hours ago, I was able to put them in the cart... sorry guys.. gotta be fast.
Yeah, I know the hazmat was per order, but when each brick is +$15/K, I'll wait for more locally. They are showing up.. not desperate yet.

Easy to get is the first step, price reduction is second. The longer they sit the closer the second step is

Scheels often has primers in stock for $50-60 per 1K. However, they limit buying to 1K per person per day.
Why is it they can charge that, and every other retailer has to charge twice the price?

Last time I got primers at Scheels, was still 3 sleeves per type/day. But, I haven't seen more than $7/sleeve yet there.
Could be fulfillment from vendors before the price increase, or vendors just taking what market will bear.

i was quoting a full brick price. My brother also grabbed one for me as the limit was 1 brick per day per customer
The shortage must be over. Walked into a little “outdoor” store in BFE Texas over the weekend and the shelves were loaded with primers and ammo. He had pretty much any flavor you might want.
Primers were a modest $24.99 per 100.
I was able to resist temptation…

Define "local."
Like, driving distance from Houston, "local?" Asking for a friend...
And, these aren't the ol' "once fired" primers, are they?
I figure "my friend" could drive a fair piece to buy a trailer load of primers at 69.99 per 1000. "He" could set up a table right outside this guy's shop and sell them for $23.99 per 100. I mean, it can't be gouging if you are undercutting the competition, right? Free market capitalism for the win, baby!

This is just like the crazy lumber spike we just went through.
All the fucking morons paid %600 more for framing lumber this spring, once those dumb assholes were done building, prices plummeted cuz the rest of us aren't weren't going to support that shit.
Everyone kept saying "we'll never see affordable lumber again so just take it"
Well the same shit is happening with components, wake the fuck up guys!
Stop buying $100 primers and $400 varget
This shit isn't complicated you're the problem!

I just bought CCI #41 for $40.99 a thousand at sportsmans warehouse. Cheapest primers I’ve seen in over a year. Maybe shits straightening out. I’ve seen primers in my area for the last three months off and on.
I've got powder from 96 lol still goes boom

CCI 250s were in stock for right at $100 shipped from Midway earlier this week. To some that is reasonable, to others that is higher than giraffe's ass.
But to answer your question...
Most of your magnum pistols run mid 30s for pressure. The LMP primers handle it fine.
30-30 max pressure is 42k. If you load some slow subs, sure. If you are loading to max, I wouldn't risk it personally. If you prime some brass for sub use, then put it aside and forget, you could get into a sticky situation later on as well.
270 WSM max pressure is 65k. Absolutely not.
I would aim to get the proper primer for those, Especially 270 WSM.
Aside from LP and LR primers being a different size, why can't you use a magnum primer in 270 WSM? As long as you work up pressure shouldn't be a problem, I thought that was the point.. Maybe I'm misunderstanding the statement.
The cup of a pistol primer is thinner than a LR primer. Starting loads are likely much more than I would even consider with on a pistol primer.
I load very light for my .45-70. 13 grains of trail boss under a 405g cast pill. It runs 1035fps. I recently tried the same load with a Winchester large rifle magnum primer. I didn't run it across a chrono, but it seemed to have a little more report and recoil. The primers showed that the charge was a little hotter too. Not much, but noticeable if you're paying attention. Groups tightened up a little. I would not substitute magnum primers in my other cartridges without also going to a significantly lighter powder charge. Some will say it's fine and that's fine for them.
Oklahoma Is working their ass off pushing for a primer factory to be built somewhere in state. I know this is near the top for priority list, or so they say among conservatives. I would love to see a couple more factories in the middle of the nation. Weapons or ammo manufacturers would be great as well.
Just run regular rifle primers.
absolutely no need for a magnum primer in a short magnum.
Even in single digit temps my 7 saum kicks ass with 210m’s
Hell, my recent test showed even my 338 edge with almost 100 grains of powder did well with a 210m at 50 degrees.
If you use the discord app, I see primers coming into stock almost daily from different sources in the $69-$89 per 1k range.
I have a harder time finding projectiles and powder at this point, specifically Berger 105s/109s and H4350. I have seen a bunch of 6.5mm projectiles this past week, so hopefully the 6mm's are shortly behind. Powder is probably sitting in a shipping container offshore, waiting to be unloaded.

Just paid $40 for 1k. Idk how you fellows can jump through hoops to get butt fucked.
Getting buttfucked would be when the local claim gang comes through your neighborhood after the economy crashes and you realize you have 5 rounds of .223. Inflated prices suck, but I am stocking as I can and will continue. It's a cost to benefit analysis. If you have decided you are sitting pretty, then that is great. I was late and playing catch-up a bit. I actually feel lucky this late in the game to have scored 7000 various primers under 100 bucks per 1000. I'm pretty sure they aren't going back to 35 anytime soon, if ever.
Yeah my LGS doesn't give out discounts just because you can suck a mean dick. But $20 is $20 and I'm proud of you for making things happen on your budget.
