Reloaders: it's close enough to hunting season that Walmart got out muzzle loader supplies... 🤔 Including lots of 209 primers!

I'd hate to pay Hazmat fees for just 1K of primers. Before the shortage, I always bought in 5K increments. I hope I can hold on with what I have on hand till the supply loosens up a bit.
 
I'm ecstatic; ~20 months easy of not finding magnum primers at a price I'd pay.

I'd never dealt with Midway before last year but they get high marks from me.

Hear that. I also hate missing out on the free shipping deal. Trying to time free shipping though and in stock is a black art.

I bought 3k and shipping/hazmat was 12.99. I think my order qualified for free shipping though so the 12.99 was probably all HazMat.
 
I was in Academy last week and they had quite a bit but the prices are still high. They've also raised their limit to 4.
 
I picked up several hundred 5.56 brass and a pocketful of .44 mag from one of my ranges a couple of days ago. I considered that a good sign.

I have seen ammo on store shelves lately. My local Walmart is getting ammo once, sometimes twice a week. I have recently seen a good of amount in Rural King stores and Gander lately as well.
