Was at two local shops today, and at the first one I found some primers with no limit. I bought two bricks of CCI 450's at $130/1000, and left at least that many for any one else who may need them. They also had some powder, 1# and 8# jugs. Nothing I needed and the price was about $50 for singles and $300 for the jugs.
The second shop also had some powder and primers, as well as bullets. Very limited quantity of powder and primers, but better prices. I bought a brick of CCI lrp for $100/1000. They only had about five bricks of primers, of various types.
The good news is that while talking to the counter guy at the second shop I was told that they were expecting a shipment of powder and primers sometime later today. When I asked how many primers they were expecting, the answer surprised me, 30K primers! I was told it would be a couple of days before they were put in the system and on the shelf for sale. I don't need any powder and so I never thought to ask how much they were expecting, nor did I ask a price on powder.
So, it looks like a light at the end of the tunnel.
If any one is interested, the second LGS is Flat Top Arms located in Beckley, WV.
