Re: Bruno has federal 210 primers instock now???
I think some people are failing to see the actual benefit of price gouging in times of shortages. Yes, there is one.
In this case, if I have absolutely no primers, then I am willing to pay the stiff price because I really need them. If I am just hoarding them, I won't pay the stiff price and thus I leave them to be available for someone else who is willing to pay that price, someone who really needs them.
If they were made available at the regular price, the folks who absolutely need them would never get a chance, because hoarders are snatching them up even if they don't really need them.
It's the law of supply and demand. The price will go up until people stop hoarding these things, then the supply will finally catch up and the prices will come down (or at least I hope so.)

Moreover, higher prices will lead to greater profit incentives, which leads to more production, which will lead to more supply, which will lead to lower prices. If you don't want or need them at that price, then don't buy them.

That will never happen from now on. That is unless another pro-gun conservative is elected president. But, the voter base our current socialist president is building will that ever happen?

Re: Bruno has federal 210 primers instock now???
This happened when the AWB went down and so it should come as no surprise that now that we have the most powerful anti-gun administration we have ever seen that people are buying all they can . When you couple that with increased demand from all the people who ran out and bought a gun after the election (remember how hard it was to get AR stuff ?)and the fact that this is typically the toughest time of year to find reloading supplies (come on every High-power , IPSC , IDPA and SASS shooter you know is trying to find enough to get them through the season) makes a market that many of us have never experienced . If you don't buy enough to build a stash of ammo to sock away for when you might have to flex your second amendment right then you are foolhardy . I have always bought in bulk just to save money . Powder 32 pounds at a time and primers in sleeves of 5000 . My only regret in all this is that I was broke most of last year and on the road working for the last 6 months making it tough for me to stock up on things I would have liked to . Now that I am unemployed I am glad I have all the stuff I do to keep me entertained .

Just a note.......I had ordered some Lapua brass from Bruno a week ago and didn't receive it so I called they said it hasn't showed up yet, but it is listed as "in stock" on there web site. So if you are thinking of ordering anything call first. I did however get my order filled from Powder Valley. My .02

Re: Bruno has federal 210 primers instock now???
Bill, I did not mean what I said towards you, I just hate online retailers rasing prices like that while everyone els (others like powder valley and grafs) still sell them at regular prices.
They will not get any of my business.

I hear you. On the other hand, Powder Valley has no primers to sell and they have even removed them from their web site. So, that's how they can keep their prices low.
It puts in mind the joke about the guy buying milk at a convenience store at 2:00AM and complaining that it costs $1.00 more than at the grocery store the next block over. "So, why don't you buy it there?" he was asked. "They're closed right now," he replied. To which the owner of the convenience store says, "Well, when we are closed, our milk is a dollar less than at the grocery store."
I'm not sure which one is more despicable, the stores who jacks up the prices, the hoarders who cause the shortage in the first place or the "entrepreneurs" who buys large quantities at the cheap on-line places and resells them at huge profits at local gunshows. What is your opinion?

I rather fall into the "lighten up Francis" category when it comes to people laying up for a rainy day; whether they be retailers, manufacturers or those of us who prefer to buy 8lb jugs of powder or 5000 primers at a time.
I don't particulary like the asswipes purchasing (which means they are buyers for resale)from retailers in order to post items on auction sites, gunshows or otherwise for dramatic markups. They shoud buy from wholsalers for that purpose or are likely avoiding the costs associated with the honest wholesalers and retailors.
That said, none of them have a gun to our heads, forcing us to buy.
It's extreme sport commerce as I see it and while I'd prefer to buy just what I need, when I need it, I now feel I must think more prospectively about many things, including supplies for my hobby.
Those of us in hurricane prone areas are ( or should be) planning ahead to lay in our month long supply of food, water and other supplies, materials and contingencies: if my generator is running after huricane TeraPatrick wipes out the power grid (assuming I'm spared the destruction she's capable of), there will doubtless be people resentful of my preparedness.
As greasy smoke from my grill signals hot food (and cold beverages) to those who were less fortunate and those who failed to plan ahead, there will also be arms and ammunition handy; in case the resentful become motivated to do more than make changes in their buying practices.
And yes, I would arrogate unto myself, the decision to sell or donate any of my own stock of provisions, tools, building materials or any other items in my possession to those in "need" at a price or time I deem fitting.
PM me if you want to discuss my views of gouging laws when it comes to the things I own. It's complicated and nuanced and probably a touch political so...

Re: Bruno has federal 210 primers instock now???
While your post started up easily enough, you should be the one to "lighten up, Francis." Some will have noticed by now, that I am presenting various points of view. I do not like the present situation, but I have not been contributing to the problem one way or the other as I had all my orders in and delivered before the troubles began.
I was going to mention hurricane preparedness, as I am quite familiar with that, living in South East Texas. I have had a generator for several years. When Ike came through the issue was more about keeping the thing fueled. One can store only so much fuel at the house and when Ike came through we had just gone through a summer of very high gas prices. Regardless, I had stored enough fuel (and water and food) for the duration. My stock was replenished ASAP. Fuel additives are your friend. I actually plan on adding a few more gas containers just for grins. Same goes for water and food. I have a family to take care of.
What I found most interesting is that I have the only generator in my neighborhood and this is not a poor neighborhood.

The Hurricane named after Tera Patrick was light hearted I thought!
Clearly, my spelling sucked too.
Have you seen the links to gunripper.com where people are actually bidding several hundreds of dollars for 8 lbs of Varget? Or primers?
Nostril hairs are still pretty cheap though...

Re: Bruno has federal 210 primers instock now???
[tinfoil hat] Quee, you are missing the big picture man. this shortage isn't a few gun owners stocking up on supplies. it's all part of the larger conspiracy to marginalize the financial power of conservatives. see, first they (they being the demon liberal socialists) came out of their inner-city strongholds and bought up all of our natural habitats (suburbs, farm tracts and commercial property). this of course drove up the assessed value so that their puppet (government) institutions could raise our land taxes to astronomical highs. then they went and started buying up all the oil to raise the price. they know that conservatives prefer to buy large vehicles with hoarse power, and the resultant lower fuel economy. then they pulled out of the stock market to bottom out the prices. they know that most of the savings and investments in this country are from hardworking conservatives, and this move cut our net worth significantly. now they are creating a false "shortage" in ammunition and components (by stacking it all in some "warehouse" and "blocking imports") so we will spend what little we have left trying to maintain some semblance of normalcy. mark my words, as soon as they get some legislation through that will tax our "family values" (government health care, tax on people with children via taxing soda) we are done for. in four years or less we will all be suckling the welfare tit. then they'll have us right where they want us (under their thumb). [/tinfoil hat]
in case you missed it, all of the above was sarcasm. it was aimed at those who keep spouting this doom and gloom about how "prices are never going to come back down" and "buy while you can". i heard those same arguments for all of the bubbles and shortages that proceeded this one, and yet, they all burst sooner rather than later. if you really believe that prices wont come back down in the next year, then you are an idiot and i hope you enjoy paying $90/1000 for primers on GetBroker.
as for me: i'll be saving my cash for next year, when all those who went broke hoarding at today's prices are forced to sell at a huge loss to pay back the credit cards. after all, how many people really need to have 75k large rifle primers "on hand"? i may even sell some of my 210ms and use the cash to buy twice as many next summer
