I afree with USSR and Powder Valley’s assessment . There are several factors this time around we did have the last few times . The Remington issue and no foreign primers coming in to relieve the shortage seems like big contributors to what may be a long time before we see any relief . Keeping in mind that the fact there are no primers and no end in sight will not allow the panic to subside. I know I will buy all the primers I find in the next year regardless if I need them. I suspect many others will do the same not allowing the panic to ease any time soon
. I already made two mistakes this year I hope don’t come back to bite me . I canceled a order of 5k rifle primers that was ready to ship and gave away 3k SP pimers to friends . Now I still have enough for now but it already has changed my shooting habits . Im reluctantly shooting tomorrow but likely will not be making my bi-weekly trips anymore and those will turn into bi-monthly at best and more likely will be bi-quarterly untill I get my hads on many more primers . I also see a lot more 22lr shooting in my future.
