Few weeks ago I was looking for an alternative primer for some loads I was planning on completing. I did a very thorough search of the web looking for my 215M's but no luck and so I went to Federal and asked a few questions. I was angry over the continued shortage but expressed my position politely and with as few words as I could.
To my very great surprise today I received a phone call from a nice guy at Federal. He explained the demand for all forms of manufactured ammunition was still at an all-time high. To meet that demand Federal had to retain more primers for the manufacture of ammunition.
I was told Federal was a full year behind on deliveries of 215 and 215M primers. There had been recent runs of these two types of primers but they did not dent the backlog of orders.
I did not press him or offer solutions. The Federal representative was polite and fairly forthcoming-much more than I had any reason to expect.
The only solution I see is an eviction of Obama from the White house and the election of anyone who is not a registered Democrat or for that matter Independent. As election time draws near if it appears as though the Republican candidate will go down in flames I am sure every piece of ammo will disappear once again.
