Last I checked $1127.00 for 5000 primers!

So when I go to the range it's like making it rain at a strip joint. Yea baby I'm just chucking money out there! :dance:

Going to go spill my primers on the bed and roll around in them

Wow. That would pay for all the Christmas presents I paid for.

I like his description "not trying to price gouge," but they must be worth it to the people bidding. Less than a year ago you could of bought 5 cases of 9mm shipped for that price. Crazy times.

Gary from the old days kept in primers and powder when no else could. I bought a few more than I needed, be nice turn 150 into 1200 but I'm going to load them .

Are you referring to Gary Blunt out in Apache Junction? He was on the old board back 15 years ago. If so, i just ran across his card in my safe last week. I hate to ask, but anyone know his situation these days? I heard he may have passed away a few years ago but I'm not sure?? Please enlighten me if so. He was always a good dude! Thanks!

Do a search. I asked about him a while on the board. I believe he has gotten out the shooting game. Great guy and I bought a bunch of stuff from him over the years.

Gary and I did a bunch of business over the years also.

He evidently lost the business after his motorcycle accident.

Auction closed for $1275.00.

If 209 primers get to pistol and rifle prices I would be tempted to "not try to price gouge" I have seen a few on gunbroker pushing a $100 per 1000 with a few over.

It’s almost tempting to sell off all reloading supplies and buy it all back in 5 years. Almost.

Crazy, but even at a quarter/primer, you could load 9MM for under 35 cents, which about 1/2 of what factory ammo is going for.

Powder and a 9mm projo is under 10 cents?

Powder and a 9mm projo is under 10 cents?

If you used primers and coated or plated bullets purchased before the panic, yes you could load a 9MM for around 10¢

Powder and a 9mm projo is under 10 cents?

Here you go:

Primer--- .25
Powder-- .022 (6 grains)
Projo---- .075

.347 cents per round, $347/1000

$250.00/1,000 for primers? Wow.

 

[Boriqua]

I think they may go up from here

Eeeesh!

Pretty soon we're gonna need to build vaults to protect our primers.

I think I'm already at that point.

I was thinking of selling all my primers and using the money to buy a house for cash. :twisted:
