You would be right about that, millions of rds. already sent over and millions more scheduled to be sent over.

As to primers, government contracts are getting first dibs, then local and state law enforcement. Couple that with the higher demand for raw materials and the short supply of them to make primer components, and the reloaders are just getting the leftovers at higher prices. I never expect primers to ever be down to pre-pandemic prices ever again.

My LGS up until last month hasn't had a primer of any size or brand for over two years and they used to have shelves full of them. Now they have all the major brands except Remington but only two or three bricks of each and not all sizes at all times and prices run for 90 to 120 dollars with Federal GMM primers being the most expensive. I have seen some of the Turkish ZSR SP primers for $75 per K but it's a 80-mile round trip to get them.

I think some of the bigger box store retailers that carry primers that have deeper pockets than the little mom-and-pop shops get first dibs on primers a well.
