What are you paying for primers and are you finding any types difficult to find?

Just got my group buy in from Grafs in Feb, Magtechs were under $18 delivered. We bought a skid and had it shipped LTL, so it was cheaper than paying UPS hazmat.
If you have a dealer account with Grafs, can order in quantity and have somewhere for LTL to deliver, they'll hook you up.

I get "restricted-FFL 06/07 only" OEM primers for about $100/5K give or take a few bucks.
Local shop wants $35/K.

Freak--
I got in just before Grafs' huge price increase in Feb, so the the Magtech were the about the same price as the OEMs, don't know if that's still the case. I had some delays with Grafs, so they ended up giving me a bunch of primers at cost, now that was sweet.

Magtech LPs are $94.995K. Never tried them, but I trust CCIs.

What quantity did you have to order to get that price and do you have a C & R license?

Magtech work well from the few I've loaded. I still have a bunch of Wins and CCIs, I'll probably sell them, they're worth too much to shoot.

I've read good things about Magtechs, I've got a couple thousand, haven't tried them yet. I went to SW recently, Magtechs went up $6.00K in the past few weeks.

BP,
I ordered a whole bunch of stuff, powders and primers, on a C&R. Had it shipped to a buddies office via LTL for something like $90 (MO to MI).
Off the top of my head, primers were somewhere around 100,000 and powder was somewhere around 40 ibs. The skid was over 200 ibs.
I did get some primers at Graf's cost, as they were delayed in shipping by about a month and I asked for some conessions.
If you need all the details (prices), I'll see if I can find the invoice tomorrow.

Only way to go, that's what we did. Shouldn't need to reorder for a year.
