    I have over a thousand notifications set up. I have only ever gotten one to say the product was discontinued. I got bullets brass and powder just no primers

    yep i've been able to buy just ONE box of primers (powder valley) since i've been looking in earnest a few months ago. had a box and got all thru the checkout at basspro only to show OOS after i entered all my payment etc info and clicked buy. the prob now, when you do actually find some, is they limit to one box and thus the shipping and hazmat add-ons easily double the primer price. and yeah i'm not paying the $300/k gunbroker (or LG) prices.

    My Bot is just telling me that PowderValley is starting to put Federal Primers in stock.. YMMV

    [Edit: It looks like the Small Pistol Match and Small Rifle Match]

    [Edit2: both OOS after 12minutes]

    Managed to get 1000 small rifle primers from PV this morning thanks to the Reloading discord notification, now I just need to find large rifle primers.

    Sigh, I got all excited checking a minute ago, but when I try to add them to my cart, "OOS". I guess the inventory isn't matching up on the website vs the adding to cart. If I'd just checked earlier in the day...

    Oh well.

    Just picked up 1000 #7 1/2 Remington small rifle benchrest primers for a reasonable price at Eveland Arms in Earleville. Not sure how many he has left of those, but no pistol primers.

    I think I'd rather score a thou SPPs or SRPs than shoot a big buck at this point...

    I logged into Midway this afternoon and found two notices about primers being available back in October. No email, just notices on their site. [sigh]

    Bots are snatching them up when they get on the sights. There is a brand of Jiu Jitsu gear that has a cult following.... as soon as the website goes live with the new stuff, it is literally sold out in a minute flat. I have clicked on a item, switched to paypal to pay and before the order is paid for (mind you I already have paypal open and ready to pay) I have been cart jacked and the item sells out. I guarantee this is whats happening now with primers...

    so the 'bots' go thru the whole checkout process for you, or are they just letting you know asap when something is in stock and you take it from there? either way yeah stuff is going within seconds of notice.

    Yes. It does the whole process in milliseconds. Alot of people use them to get concert tickets and stuff. Younger, tech saavy people use them all the time to get hard to get / limited number items...

    yep, some write scripts, some use automation scripts. some bots do it all for
    you, no programing knowledge needed.
    it will check and if in stock purchase it, pay for it and done.
