forecast for reloading components

[glock7]

They're out there, gotta pay to play.

[CK_32]

Only thing impossible to get now is powder.


But even that's coming back more often and staying up SLIGHLY longer than before. Still have some ways to go tho but it's coming.

Things are getting a bit better. They will get better then there will be another panic. It will take longer to get better due to all the new reloaders. Many more new people compared to the last panic.
I am good for supplies. I do buy some when I find a good deal. Not many of them lately. Stll waiting for $11/K primers again.
Would like to find a pound of Win 780 for some testing in my 264win mag. Sooner or later I will find a pound.

Things are much better now than a few months ago. I have been able to find more primers and powder recently so hopefully that is good sign that stocks will come back for the more popular ones. It is also nice that some items are staying in inventory longer than 10 minutes.

How many primers was that? Total cost per 1k primers is not worth it to me if over $45 and that is high. $35-40/1k is more in the right range.

5000 primers

Until you can order multiple things at a time. Then there is still a shortage. I can't find h4350 at all!

[jeffyhog]

If you need primers, you can use that 20% off coupon from Big 5 tomorrow. Brings that $45.99/k down to a much better $36.79/k.

Everything is coming back except for powder. Primers & bullets can be found pretty easily. Prices are still a little high, but they are coming down.

[Apex360]

I agree powder is the hard one.

[BajaJames83]

Powder is the hard one for me.
Its out there just not often and in limited quantities.

Just checked gunbot.com, and it was no better for small pistol primers than the last time...APS strip only. There aren't any from these major mail order suppliers, or they're being swept up and hoarded so fast when they come up that one could get the impression that they have been unavailable indefinitely.

Are you in Riverside or close to it?

If you wanted only 2k-4k SPP then paying $35 plus tax is better for you from the stores, here is why:
35 x 4 = 140 + tax

Online, 30 x 4 = 120 + HAZMAT (27.50) + shipping (12) + possible tax

SO, it is wiser to stop in and GET SOME! rather then order online.

BUT, check gunbot daily because PVI seems to get them in abotu every 3 weeks or better and when they come in they are not usually sold off in minutes like they were before. The last time I placed an order from PVI I had a whole two-three days to order before they were sold out. That was in June/July. Before that, back around april/may when they got in primers, even with the 10k limit they were sold out in about 25 minutes. AYFKM?

So just be patient and watch gunbot. I prefer Tula and Tula seem to get in stock more and more.

As of typing this RIGHT NOW PVI has SRP and so does Midsouth Shooters. Tula SRP work as excellent subs for SPP.
At $24/k it is a good purchase if you want about 6k or more.

I went to PM you and I see you are reading this. I can not PM you for some reason, maybe the hawk thought I was abusing PMs too... I dunno, I hope you can log in and get some though.

I am switching over to SRP for all of my SPP needs though. They are interchangeable and there is really no difference except maybe a TAD harder.

Personally guys, i need dies, and i need to find a way to keep my dies from rusting. I have powder by the barrel, i have more primers then i need, and i have bullets coming out of my ears. Hell, come to think of it, i have 4000 bullets sitting around at a fellow Calgunners house from a group buy that i didnt have the chance to pick up before i went to alabama! What i need more then anything are 9mm, 40 cal, 357, 30-06, and a few other rifle dies that i cant think of right now. Once i have those, ill start hoarding more primers and powder and projectiles.

Fleabay is your friend, and this is sad, but by fleabay, I MEAN eBay, not the actual FLEABAY site...

There are dies all over on ebay and gunbroker. I know, I just got a FCD from ebay and a lyman carbide 357 maximum/mag/38 from gunbroker. Good stuff.

Thanks for the advice! ill go check it out! Also, primers are available if you search, i just took about 30 min to search, and found primers at PV and a few other places. Powder is much harder to find.

Search this string at ebay:

".40 die"

Replace the .40 with your calibers you want and of course remove the quotes.

There are sources on the internet that point out to the Hodgdon Fire has stopped production until 2014.

Bad for me that I use Universal Clays, Green Dot, H110 and H4895 mostly.

WHAT??? NO WAY. Sources or it didn't happen!
