Where Can I Get Cheap Primers?

[kev74]

I'm burning through my stash of $20 Sellier & Bellot primers from Cabelas and it doesn't look like they carry them any more. They work well for me, and the price was right.

Who is everyone getting primers from? I don't mind buying in bulk if the price is right.

 

[Carlos Hathcock]

I go online to various sources, just wait for free hazmat and stock up. I ordered 8 pounds of H4350 thinking it would last me all season and I'm done to 2 pounds and season is just starting. Ordered 2000 Fed match primers and half of those are almost gone.

 

[kev74]

It seems like the only primers out there are Federal, CCI, and Winchester. The off brand and foreign stuff, even the Russian primers, are gone from the market.

 

[ricklovin93]

CCI is all I'll use.

 

[kev74]

For pistol rounds, I'll use anything that makes my guns go bang consistently when they're supposed to.

I've been very satisfied with the S&B primers for the last few years.

 

[MilesTeg]

S&B won't be offered in the US again for a long while. After the plant fire they said they had no interest of selling here again.

For your original question it looks like Federal's are the cheap player now. The others seem to all be in the same ball park.

Damn! If I heard about the explosion before, I forgot all about it.

Thanks for the heads up.

Definitely not $20 but NEReloader is usually at the Middleton gun shows. I think I last paid around ? $144 cash for a case of WSP's. +10 to get in the show.
Powder valley also very good when you get a free shipping deal.

I did forget about it.

That's a shame if they're not selling here anymore. I liked some of their factory loads, for what they were.

[MilesTeg]

Primers. I read a reply from a rep. on another forum is where I got the information.

 

[repete]

I was lucky enough to stock up on primers when Biekirks was closing and it was cash and carry. I pretty much cleaned them out IIRC I got something like 18,000 Remington small rifle for about $10 per box (1000) and a bunch of others! Lots of stuff never made the online auction!

Yeah, I'm bragging.

 

[tlj000]

If you have a chance pop in, there's loads of product in there for reloaders.

 

[Carlos Hathcock]

Federal primers didnt fail to perform when I neglected to charge a case last week. Sent that bullet into the barrel as reliably as the rest.

LOL the best way to clear it is to rack another and shoot the squib out, its more betterer that way (not being serious, don't try this at home)

Hopefully have a chance to on Saturday.

Stopped by today. Great place for reloading supplies. Large selection of once fired brass.
Picked up a case of Winchester small pistol primers and a 1000 rounds of copper coated 147g 9mm. Eric behind the counter was a pleasure to deal with.
Thanks Nick

hope your not shooting them out of a Glock .. they do not like copper plated bullets ..

With all due respect, your statement is false. I personally shoot plated 124 grain 9mm projectiles out of several glocks with zero issues as do the large majority of our customers. Plated bullets are the most popular selling bullets and the most commonly used by ammo manufacturers because they work so well. It is not recommended to used lead cast bullets in polygonal barrels, plated bullets are absolutely good to go in glocks.

Thanks for the business pal! Hope to see you at middletown or in the store again! Did Eric get you all hooked up with the rebate stuff? Please remember to send the original copy of the receipt and the individual UPC barcodes from the bottom of each primer box, you can't use the main upc on the outside of the case.

Never had a problem. Can't say I ever really noticed any real accuracy difference. Could be some but for my shooting they are working fine.
