Everyone seems to be out of primers and bullets. Where do you get your supplies? I need small and large pistol primers bad!

Try gunbroker.com for primers. You'll pay a premium for them there though. For bullets just use google or try Midway, Cabelas, etc.

I've got standing orders for CCI (my preferred primer) at several distributors.

2-3 times a day I search google for "primers in stock" and hope to get lucky.

Depending on how picky you are on your projectiles will limit your choices. I've been able to find most of what I need for paper punching except for the less common calibers...

Montana gold has good stock on bullets, but you need to buy in 1000's at a time.

454 casull needs much more substantially contracted bullets than 45 colt... so for now I'm doing lots of shooting of 45 colt level power in the casull.

I search several times per week for primers and the only ones in stock anywhere I've seen are shotgun. If you need primers now heres the link. Use the smart search and click the Buy Now only box.

Try some of the smaller gun stores. My local store usually has most types in stock. They have been a little slack on small pistol primers but do have a fair selection of powder.

Greentop, Just north of Richmond has a reasonable selection recently, I also have some Large pistol primers I'm probably not going to need since I dont reload 10 mm anymore. I live in Fredericksburg, go to Richmond often and work daily in Springfield If you want to call them and have me pick up some for you. You can PM at m.spears@cox.net

there's a place in leesburg that usually has them. loudoun guns. they cost a little more, but think about it, no hazmat shipping.

I'll second GreenTop, and Woodbrook Sporting in Cville.
