I have finally broken down and pulled out all my old reloading stuff. It looks like all I am going to shoot at this winter is paper targets, cause I'm not getting drawn by TPW anywhere for anything ...One More Time. I used to buy stuff from some on line providers in several states, but after scouring the "I Net" this afternoon I'm not find many resources, and none of the old sites I used for for way too many years to think about. Is this the future I'm looking at or is there a secret handshake deal to access the old timey big on line wholesalers ? Ron

Things aren’t as bad as they were. Plenty Hornady bullets available, and primers and powders.

Midway USA and Midwest shooters supply are both good to go. I’ve ordered reloading components from both.

Both Cabelas and Bass Pro have a fair amount of components on their shelves. San Antonio area.

X2 I might have some powder for you. No primers. As stated above Wiley’s will have powder brass and bullets. No primers. At least I haven’t saw any.

I have just about given up on finding large rifle primers! LRP have always been the hardest to find since this entire mess started. If a store has any they for sure won't be on the shelf you have to ask. I found 1k asking at a gun store in Clarksville recently. I was getting fairly desperate. It was a sigh of relief.
Uprisings started or quelled, tornadoes rerouted, elections rigged.

Powder valley.com is a good online source. They have had primers over the past few weeks but they go pretty fast and are expensive with shipping and hazmat.

It’s all available every few days, the kicker is you have to buy enough to justify the shipping and hazmat costs.

I saw 3-4 sellers that had LR Primers today at the Houston Gun Collectors Gun show. Prices were $95-$140 pre thousand but had them with and no HAZMAT charges like online sources.
Maybe the drought is starting to ease up.

Don't skip over Sage's Reloading Supply for bullets and range brass. He doesn't have a super-wide variety any time, but has product moving in and out of stock regularly. Decent prices and ships fast.
Then there's the old stand-by's, Midway, Midsouth, Natchez, Sinclair/Brownell's, etc..
Just have to get it when you can for a "reasonable" price and don't look back right now.

Check with Natchez shooters, and Midway. These folks i use mostly if cannot find goodies locally. Gun shows are no. bargain, 20$ entrance, 5 to park, hardly worth it!....
Alway check OAL before shooting or loading chambers! those digital calipers are worth the money, have fun.....
hunt safe....
