So you can’t buy #10 or 11 caps anymore? Nobody has them. I asked a gun store that told me all primer products are out of stock with a ship date of 2024. Can this be right?

I currently have almost 7K in stock, but at 79 I’m going to do my level best to fire them off. Grandkids can buy their own.I have a case of 100 tins of the Remington caps, 10K in total, that I bought about 15 years ago. That should last me will I go home to my Lord with plenty left for the grandkids. Jenny’s boy really loves his grandpas smoke wagons.
That’s what i did for black powder back in the 90’s. I’ll have to will some to somebody.I have a case of 100 tins of the Remington caps, 10K in total, that I bought about 15 years ago.

I live by bass pro. Actually worked there for 10 years starting 1978. Bought my ROA there in the 90’s. Guess I should just go check it out. I never shop there because of their mark up prices.https://www.basspro.com/shop/en/remington-blackpowder-primers
The main photo and description are for 209's (shotgun primers I think?) so it's very decieving. But on the right side of the screen underneath the price there's a drop-down menu where you can choose 209's OR the Remington 10's. They're $8.99/pack and can have them shipped to the store for pickup (no hazmat fee) or shipped to your house for extra $$$. Navigating to it is also impossible unless you do a search on their site for Remington Primers. It will bring you to the above linked page.
Even at the physical store BPS/Cabella's were still selling the CCI's for 8.99 a pack. It's the only place in the entire city that has caps so I'm stuck paying the higher price. I'm new to cap and ball revolvers but I'm guessing that once the price goes up it never comes down.I've seen the Remington caps in stock (online) at BPS/Cabelas but can't believe they are getting $80-90 per thousand. They were selling for $55-$60 per K at the beginning of this year.
I've been finding CCI's still for $5.95 per hundred somewhat locally and have been getting a few packs every time I'm in the area. Dont care for them as much, but they keep me shooting.

I wouldn't hold my breath on that one. We just took a leap from normal.It will come back down. They went up last time too, to $7.99 if I remember right. Then they went back down to 5.99. be patient, normal "should resume shortly".

Just be ready for the next one. Lessons we all learned the hard way. Sandy ho-- ( ax or ok) was my wake up call. Make this one yours....Hoarding mode...drives me nuts.

Probably at least 4 years before it could normalize...Understood. Hopefully its temporary.
I work for an auto parts supplier and they have already banned lead wheel weights in many states, and eventually will be all states. Those states have to use zinc.
