    Has anyone seen a local resource for large rifle primers? I know this is a tough subject but I haven’t seen any on the shelf for years.
    I have been using my stock but it’s getting low.
    thanks
    I’m in Garrett co.

    They appear here and there at bass pro shops and cabelas. Online got them for around 15-20 cents each shipped when you account for hazmat and shipping. They are averaging around 8 to 20 cents these days depending on the type, find them at the store, or buying online if you need them.

    Bass pro is about it for local. Free ship to store to avoid hazmat.

    I picked some up at the Dulles gun show a couple weeks ago. Medusa Munitions is a local vendor and had a limited amount at the show.

    Cabelas in DE has a sale on Win #41,
    $62.98/K and plenty in stock. I grabbed a case of 5K, so no limits either and tax free.

    I'll have to check them out when I am there.

    I appreciate the mention that BP had them online. No CCI LR left (no CCI except benchrest in stock). But I apparently got the last 1100 Remington 9 1/2 LRP shipping to the store and maybe they'll have 1k of someone's LRP there.

    First time I've seen LRP that wasn't >$120 + shipping + hazmat.

    Shydas has had Rem 9-1/2 for several months, $80+tax. I know it's a haul for many, but Rem has been more avail for MLRP and LRP than most

    Yeah, unfortunately too far for me to drive right now with my busy life.

    Fortunately I have some Remington 9 1/2 so I don’t have to switch up load data getting somemore

    Not Far Enough from the City
    Has anyone come across primers from the new manufacturer in Texas that was supposed to start production this year?

    Expansion Industries. They supposedly produced some very limited sample product last year. Other than that, seems to be crickets. I'm not sure they're even currently viable. Rumors of layoffs, dismantling of equipment etc. Wondering myself what's fact and what's fiction, or if they'll ever be a viable source.
