Since the panic buying I've been trying to fire up the ole reloading press, having a hell of a time finding small rifle primers. I'm in nashville area, let me know if you find any

The only way you will get any for the foreseeable future is to find someone who is willing to trade or sell you some. There are none in stores or distributors, and production has been allocated to ammo manufacturer orders. In a few months we may possibly see some imports available.

I have 800 or so SR primers, KVB 223 TULA.

Would need a ride from shelby county to your place.

PM me for price if you are interested.

I do have some Federal 210, 215, and GM205MAR primers but these are quite expensive........

Only place online I have seen that has any in stock is a place in Canada selling by the 100.

I do have Remington small rifle I could trade or let go of that are labeled not for use in .223.

I don't check this often enough to keep up. Pm me if you're close and you wanna off load some. All I have to trade is gold bullion, some doubloons, old wampums....oh, and cash or Venmo. Also need powder if you got it "lil gun, 1680, or anything you think would work for subsonic 300 blk"

Buddy of mine picked up 1,000 from MidSouth Shooters Suppy in Clarksville last week. I'm sure he just got lucky, but you could call them up and ask them to reach out the next time they get more.

Tried this the last time I talked with them before placing an order. They said they had no idea when they would get any and basically could not give one customer preferential treatment.

If anyone on the east side has any small rifle or small pistol primers, I would be willing to buy or trade factory ammo. I've got 9mm, 223/556, 22lr, and some 308 that I could trade. Also have some large rifle magnum primers I think. I just started reloading a couple months ago or else I'd be stocked up:(

Don't know if the 6.5 remington small rifle primers would work with 300 blackout or not. Have 1000 of them. Would trade for large primers or cash.
6.5 rem small rifle primers aren't advised for use in 223, 5.56, 300bo, etc.... They are designed for 22 hornet loads. The cups are too thin and you run the risk of rupturing a primer.
