Primers Shipping...

FYI, on a lark I put in an order for CCI #41 primers at Graf & Sons — they're one of the few places accepting backorders on primers.

I placed the order on the 16th, and they're shipping today. I'm astounded, overjoyed.

Send me a couple thowie for T&E/Quality control checks and what not!

I just posted a link to Graf & Sons in the "where can I get it thread...not sure if it was supposed to go there?". They show CCI 5.56 NATO-SPEC primers in stock right now.

Primer prices are too high right now... as much as $50 dollars per 1k delivered. I'd only be a buyer if I was VERY VERY desperate.

The #41's are typically more expensive than standard SRPs, correct?

That too. I've never tried any of those come to think of it.

Yes, they are traditionally more expensive, however as MarkM stated the prices are still to high unless you are really needing them. I'll stick with the regular SRP for lower cost & wait until the prices and supplies return to some semblance of the pre-panic prices.

I don't need any. I've been sitting on 5k of the #41s for awhile but I couldn't remember how much I paid. I just remember that they were slightly more than the others.

Don't think it will be much longer before primers are back, just last week my local bass pro had 14 bricks of CCI No.500 at $37.99, and about 8 bricks CCI small rifle.
I was in a very popular LGS today and he had 2 bricks and a broken brick of No.41 at $59.95. So the hoarding seems to be slowing down, at least hoarding at premium prices. But it was good to see product on the shelf and have them say that for the last 2 weeks when they restock 5.56 there is still some on the shelf from the last restock.

Look better at least.....
