Wanted to top off my 6,000 stock of Federal 215's --you know... maybe get another 5 or 10 thou--and can't find shit anywhere!
WTF man. Anyone got an 'in' with Federal?

Lol, how many 215’s are you burning through a week? I’m guessing it’ll take you hmmmmmm, 5 years to burn through what you have.
I've learned not to question my OCD 'lock-on' obsessive complusiveness... now days I just run with it.
If it's not primers.. it's bullets...
If it's not bullets, it's powder...
If it's not powder it's cases...
If it's not cases it's rifles...
If it's not rifles it's handguns...
Rinse repeat.
I'm down to my last 3000 of 215m primers and don't plan on replacing them since I have been trying to make everything I load with CCI 450's
One is large rifle, one is small rifle. So that won’t work with your 300 PRC.

@Supersubes nailed it, I am getting rid of my Mag calibers and have plenty of large rifle match and standard for my 270win.
Anything under that I have switched to CCI450 , 308 Palma, 6.5 CM, 6.5X47, 68SPC, 223/556 You get the picture
I feel your pain, seems like alot of the reloading stuff is gone and back ordered with no eta.
Have a very good friend that own a gun store in NE MS. I think he owns close to 10k of the the federal 215s.
He can’t ship them however.
He has a bunch of CCI and Winchester large rifle and some large magnum rifle (not match).

That's why you buy 5000 Primers for a barrel that will be toast in 3000 rounds.
Are you calling in the backorder? All the primers are showing out of stock online and it just has an "email to be notified when they are back in stock" message.
Yeah.. a couple weeks ago I posted a link for reloadingunlimited's primers --however you only get 1000 when buy buy a pound of powder... I have a LOT of powder now. At the same time I posted a link to Bruno's whom at that time had 67 boxes of 1000. Well I bought 3000... but now that they're totally out --realized I should have just shot the paycheck and gotten 10,000. for MEEEEEE. Dumb ass that I am... that'll teach me.

Buy em cheap, stack them deep.
I still have cases of SRP and SPP from 2008. And I shoot about 15-25k pistol a year...
If anyone remembers, S&B had 1k primers for $17. I cleaned out one store and PV during that time.

I’m talking with the dairy companies as we speak. They are going to bring back the milk cartons and try to help with this problem.
I am
ETA, sure it is a scam.
Yep! DO NOT USE... luckily google pay did not accept my bank account info
Effen cuck just got banned too.. LOl

Oh that. sorry.. got about 9 million meetings going on today.
I'm on EVERY gun suppliers wait list for 20 different things from 300 PRC brass to primers..BLAH BLAH BLAH ... like everyone else I suppose.
LOL.. no sir --not a one. The manufacturers (Hornady for eg) keep saying "they're going at 100% capacity." a company THAT size going at 100% is a lot of damn bullets.
What they're not saying is WHO they're selling too.
If they are, indeed, going at 100% you'd THINK at least here and there we'd see sprinkles of items being had. Or maybe you have to be in the big boys club --friends of retail sellers or something and they're not divulging their sources. It's all pretty friggen suspicious.
Primers are showing up in small quantities, but they are gone in seconds. In the last two weeks, I have seen primers at Brownells, Midway, and Powder Valley, but have not succeeded in getting any. I got an order confirmed at Brownells, but it was cancelled later in the day.
I know Powdervalley Midsouth neither allow sign up for notification upon delivery.... that begs the question I previously raised...as in how are people finding out stock is delivered... just in time to order it all seemingly ahead of the all the normal folk? As George Carlin might say.... "Its a big fucking club and guess what? You're not in it!"...
God I miss that man.
God I miss that man.
Modern computing with a little bit of coding. Primers can be bought in literally 2-5 seconds of hitting a website.
Well, now that you opened that can of worms;

100%^^^ that right there...
Never had a flu vaccine --never will.
Covid be damned. If it's my time then so be it.
But the same brush on all fours areas.. LOLOL Pass.
I bought a bunch of Tula SRM and LRM from PV back in 2013 or so at about the same ridiculously cheap price back then. Still using them....
