80 bucks is still above my price point. Besides, never heard of the manufacturer.
Maybe if I run out.....but that will take awhile.

When you buy loaded ammo, you have no idea of the manufacturer anyway. Bosnian company.

Thanks, I ordered a sleeve. I'm just about out of the $20/K Tula primers I ordered in bulk in 2008. I don't see prices returning to "normal" any time soon. For the odd calibers I tend to reload for this is a price I can live with for now.

I bought 2500 awhile back from another source. They are good primers.

I didn't know Bosnia manufacturers primers for reloading! A friend used those primers before and had no complaints. I have not personally use them but have used Wolf, Tula, Magtech, S&B and a bunch of others I never thought I would use lol.

Thanks for the heads up.
Pricey, but I picked up some. Let's face it, we are in an inflationary economy now. Primers are like gasoline. If you need some, pay up or go without.
Sadly, I think the days of $30 bricks are gone forever. Hopefully the price will eventually come down to something more reasonable.

I picked up 5k of those when I went to my cabin in Carolina. I paid 100 buck more than that but I've got another year or so worth of range trips now. I've ran 500 through 357, 38, 9mm and those screwy small primer 45acp. Not a hiccup in that batch.
As for prices coming down, maybe when interest rates hit 15+ percent we may see it drop a bit, but 30$ bricks are gone for good.

The last CCI primers I bought was in 2020, one brick of LP for $50. My wife told me I should have bought more and I replied "Not at that price, I'll wait until things return to normal." I'm still waiting for "normal" so I ordered a sleeve of the Ginex.
