Tonight my son asked me if he should stock up on primers. I haven't been able to go prairie dog hunting or even get to the range because of a move, Covid and a lack of a convenient range for years.
So I looked on-line. Holy Moly or, as I saw on another forum Holly Molly
$85 - $130 when did that happen?
Back to Question A: What was the least per $1000 you paid and when? I swear I remember $14-15 but that would have been when I started reloading in the early 80's
Question B: Would you stock up now? The online sites I looked at had primers in stock, but I remember Eisenhower's heart attack and at least 3 or 4 primer shortages in my reloading lifetime. On the basis of that, I would if I were an frequent shooter and reloader, but what do you think?
Is it based of shortages, price increases or nefarious future excise tax?
