Ok i'm one of those guys that got caught with my pants down a little!! I went to reload my 220 swift and 6mm yesterday and I'm running pretty thin on primers and powder.

Does anyone know where to buy the stuff online? I know everyone is out, but I just want to get added on the list or maybe a email when they get something in.

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks
Brandon

Only way your going to find it is to bounce from site to site with your fingers crossed.

I’ve been on Midways notifications for powder and primers over 4 months and I’ve yet to get one. I’m sure a few do but I haven't.

Same here. Got in a bunch of notifications for brass and 12 ga slugs as well. Never a peep out of Midway since I put myself on the list

Not sure how Midways system works however I have put myself on their “list” for items in the past. I was never notified of the items being in stock yet multiple times months thereafter I would search their site and find the items in stock yet I was never notified. This was pretty-COVID so if it’s a functional system it was poor at best prior to COViD and likely even less so low IMO.

I’ve got notifications for bullets and brass but nothing else. I’ve tracked down the locations to find powder very regularly but not a primer yet. Just hit the sites when they showed up.

I was able to secure Win 209 primers using the notify me button from MidwayUSA. I am still waiting on notification for small pistol primers.


Luck favors the prepared mind.

Make sure the notifications aren't going to your spam. I had that issue at first.

What are you looking for specifically? I’m right up the road from you, and could maybe bring you a pound or two to help get you out of a bind.

Trainer Hale had a good supply of powder in December, but I hear that batch is picked over. They have great prices as well. 8lb H4350 was $199 and the 1lb Varget was in the low 30s I think.

Powder is slowly coming in, and unless primers start to appear I think powder will catch up in a few months. You can only stock up on so much powder without primers to set it off.
