Dang man I wish you were closer I need a box of those. And that's a fair price for now.

I'd take them all if you were willing to bring them to the MidState. 😂
I traded for 10,000 of these a few months ago. Loaded a couple thousand rounds of 5.56 with them. I finally got a few thousand of my normal CCI primers, although at a much higher price even before tax and shipping. I figured I would let someone else have these for what I have in them.

Good for you! Midway is selling small rifle primers for $75 per K, when they have them, while our so called "friends" are willing to help us out at $150 per K. They justify it by calling it "market value"; they are dirt bags. Thanks for being honest. I just wish I was closer to get some of these at a fair price for the times.

How did they run, any issues?
I only fired a couple dozen of them to test load when I started using them, but they worked fine. I need to zero a couple uppers today. I will make sure to take more loaded with them.

ETA: May have to wait until tomorrow, unless this wind calms down pretty quick. I was wanting to do a ladder test with a new powder. I loaded up identical loads with these and CCI400s to compare the two. The wind is blowing so hard it knocks my chrony tripod over.

Yes, and Midway has been limiting primer purchases to 1k per order. They end up costing well over $100/k after tax, shipping, and hazmat.
