Supplies...or lack thereof

rugermanx:
I must be pretty unlucky I never even see primers anymore. I am doing alright on pistol primers at the current time but don't have enough to last more than a few more months. Large rifle I got a bunch of before the crunch hit. However I got my AR right before the rush on supplies (picked up the upper Nov. 2, 2008) 2 weeks later the parts were already inflated and I was pretty happy that I got mine ordered when I did. However I am completely out of small rifle and wouldn't mind finding a couple k. If anyone sees them at cabela's or GU I wouldn't mind being notified so that I can call and see if they can hold some for me. Always good to have a few extra sets of eyes that visit the stores at different intervals so that a guy knows when they are in stock.

predatorhunter:
rugermax if you are looking for small rifle primers and don't mind CCI brand Scheels in Lincoln has had a good supply the last two weekends while I was there.  They also had a good supply of large pistol.  As for small pistol they only had a couple boxes.

Toster:
Is there anything wrong with the CCI brand of small rifle?  I know some people don't like the Winchester small rifle primers due to a soft or thin cup, and it causing a slam fire in AR's.  I have not heard anything bad on the CCI's.  Anyone?

Dan W:
CCI is my preferred brand. I am also using Magtech SR primers with good results

Randy:
I have read some forums where people state that CCI Primers are a little bit harder
(require more firing pin energy)

+1 for CCI my preferred brand also.

Now Federal is a whole different story.
