Just received Primers!!!!!!!!

I just received primers ordered from Midway yesterday. Looks like some of my backorders are starting to get filled.

Now, maybe I can start to get some of that reloading started.

I hope Cabelas got some. Mine have been on backorder since Moses parted the Red Sea.

Funny, all the way down here in little old NZ we have the following time frames on all our stuff

- Primers (All in stock, 4 weeks to get if they run out)
- Powders (All grades in stock)
- Projectiles (Lapua in stock, Frontier CMJ 2 weeks away)
- Factory Ammo (4-6 weeks)
- Factory Reloads (In Stock)

- Reloading equipment (4-6 weeks)

Even in current environment our dealers have no trouble getting stuff within 6 weeks.

About 5 weeks ago I managed to get the last primers in NZ (3000 of them) and now the dealers are fully stocked again. Ive got so many im not allowed to buy any more (hard word form the lady).

I picked up powder last week and the dealer had some old stock so he gave me 3 for the price of 2. $59US for 1.5KG of AP70N.

My projectile dealer is getting another 30,000 CMJ projectiles from Frontier (South Africa) in 2 weeks. $69US per 1000

Primers at the new inflated prices are still working out at $42US per 1000 for both CCI and Federal.

Speer Brass $23US for 400.

Its reloading heaven at the moment, im making 50 rounds of 9mm for $6-15 US depending if im using CMJ or FMJ projectiles.

I just scored another brick of Federal Large Pistols. I have 13k total now so I belive my primer buying is done except for what I have on b.o with Cabelas. Time to do some serious reloading, just picked up another press for decapping and maybe priming using a ram prime from Lee. These were from Graf's.

I bought a 1k small pistol for 55$ a few weeks ago. Gonna have to have them hold out for a bit longer. I'm leery of back ordering and then having some store get them sooner and at a better price.
