I know they are scarce as hen's teeth, but I finally found CCI LRPs.....$169.00 a brick....Is that the going price, Golly Gee! Should I bite the "primer" and pay that, or keep looking??

And I just checked their website and it appears they are currently out (at Greensboro) of Large Rifle across the board....

Just checked on ammoseek. com and found some for 100-150 per 1000 but you’ll need to thoroughly check out the sellers.

Paid $14 for a 150 count sleeve of Fiocchi LRP primers at the local outdoors shop a couple of weeks ago. Ordered 1000 count brick of Winchester LR Magnum primers from Midway yesterday at $145, counting the shipping, taxes and hazmat fees.

I'm so happy I stocked up years ago while I could get a brick for $35-45! And powder for $24-28 lb. And 8lb jugs for $135...
Current pricing has gone absolutely stupid. If the time comes that I need, guess I'll have to pay up but hopefully I have enough to last the next 15 to 20 years..

Yep. Just for hoots I looked in the cabinet to verify price marks a little while ago. 8 lb jugs @ $134.99 and bricks of primers @$24.99. Didn't see any prices on 1 lb containers but they were from $21.99 to $28.99 depending on brand etc when I got them. Much has changed the last few years. Well, if memory serves me right this upward trend and reduced supply started when odumber was in the WH..

I remember those days, I’d go through 2-3 8# kegs a year per rifle, and a new barrel. I didn’t have enough room to store 10 years worth, but I wish I did.

targetsportsusa has them for $105/k
With taxes, hazmat, and shipping it gets to about $160/k
They have other primers and stuff too so you may be able to spread the hazmat out if you need other stuff.
