Default That’s a lot of primers!

I have no idea how many, it’s a mix of small and large pistol. I just filled up the catch bottle on my Lee APP for the third time since I got it back in early October!

I had to laugh when I read your reply...sobering truth is it may come to that! There was a thread a week or so ago where someone had a link to a priming compound you could rebuild primers with. Lord help us!

I’m in pretty good shape on primers and loading supplies for a few years and expect things to get more back to normal in a year so so. Someone will see an opportunity here and expand production or a start up producing them.

If I run out I’ve decided to buy a co2 gun or two and have at it in my back yard.

Things will return to normal again.
