Default Gunshow purchase

Well it looks like things are coming back down. Here is my take from the gunshow today. All bought from Georgia Arms.

2,000 large pistol primers (20.00 ea)
2lbs Hodgen Titegroup (20.00 ea)
1lb IMR Trailboss (16.00)
500 Berrys plated .452 rn 185gr (75.00)

These prices are half compared to our local communist LGS store that buys up other stores and reprices. I think I did well, especially the primers 2.00 per 100

Looks like the ammo vultures and panic buyers of the past 6 or 7 months are soon going to feel like the fools they are.

The primer prices are great.
I just bought some for $30/1000 (new Remington) from a reloading supply company I catch up to at the shows and I thought that was fair considering what's been going on.

I was about out of my Remington Kleenbore & Western Staynless primers that are packaged in the little wooden trays.
Haven't found a use for the empty trays yet.

Sorry I dont ship, but Georgia Arms does. They have a good selection on their website and are always at our gunshows. I figured I would save myself shipping heavy bullets and shipping hazmat primers and powder.

Those fools ( ammo vultures) a few months ago ( feb) at the same gunshow were buying up 500 round cans of 5.56 of bulk **** 55 grain for $600...lol.

Now those same cans were going for $250 at most tables. Glad I got rid of my M4 years ago.


I wont complain about these prices though. One LGS sells primers for 6.99 per 100.
