Primer availability — finally back
Small pistol primers have been impossible to find in my area. Finally scored 2495 Winchester at my LGS for $60/k.
Where are you guys finding primers?

$60/k is about right these days unfortunately. I scored some CCI 500s last month for $55/k at a gun show. Still checking online daily but most places want hazmat fees that kill the deal. LGS is really the way to go if you can find them.
Finally seeing primers come back in West TX but prices are still high. $60/k is the new normal I think... those $30/k days are long gone thanks to government overreach and supply chain issues. I'm buying whatever I can find and stashing them away.
Haven't been reloading much lately but $60/k isn't terrible considering what primers were going for during the shortage. My LGS still doesn't have small pistol primers consistently.
Been finding large rifle primers up here but small pistol is still hit or miss. $60/k isn't bad - paid $80/k last year when I was desperate. Most of my reloading is for hunting loads anyway so I don't burn through primers like you pistol guys.
Not sure I agree but I respect the opinion. For me the HK VP9 has been rock solid for 18 months now.
How long have you had yours? Any reliability issues?
Appreciate the honest review. Most people just hype everything up.
