this last week or two we have been able to buy several thousand primers that I have never seen before. They are made by CCI and are listed as the #41 primers, meant for the 5.56 loading. Not sure if that means you can't use them for other situations where small rifle primers are intended.
The down side is the cost. Buying them in 5000 round packets they cost us well over $110 per thousand. Plus shipping and Haz Mat. So we are having to sell them for $14.95 per 100 pack. I hate it that we have to jack up the prices but it is either that or sell none at all. And we aren't selling them in bulk or by the thousand. They are going by the 100 pack so everyone will have a chance to get some.
