Ammunition & Hand Loading > Cartridge and Shotshell reloading
Supplies...or lack thereof
Rich B:
As a heads up, some online retailers do accept backorders. E-mail your retailer of choice and ask if they will accept backorders and hold the entire order until all items are in before they ship. Try to find a friend or two or three to help offset the HAZMAT charge.
I'm presently okay on all types of primers I load with. However, my concern is what my stash will look like come October or November. I'm ordering now, with the anticipation of a 3 or 4 month wait.
(On a similar note, I'm *still* waiting on 3 AR-15 LPKs from Brownell's that I ordered in mid-January.)

I talked to a guy Sunday that has stockpiled 21,000 (Yeah, thousand.)primers and bought a Dillon 550b on a payment plan...... hasn't even got it out of the box yet, and isn't planning to until he needs to....... I wonder how many folks have done the same? I always have a few boxes of primers on hand...... it's bullets I tend to run out of.......
Randy:
He may have the market on primers should they become regulated.
Be-it a black market no pun intended.
Dan W:
I decided to just order some H335 and 5k small rifle primers from Powder Valley in Winfield KS. They will back order, and combine primer and powder on one HAZMAT fee , within limits. We'll see how long it takes to fill the order,as I asked them to hold it until they had it all before shipping
