I started with shotshell and Vectan was the most widely available powder (cheap too), but data was sparse, and I found deals on some oddball components, so there was no published data available for what I had. Luckily many people were in the same situation, so those with actual knowledge were able to work up data. What a first learning experience that was.

There's another BIG issue that'll further worsen the situation, which is the scarcity of certain raw material used in firearm and cannon rounds. A major component used in primers for firearm and cannon rounds is antimony. The U.S. and the rest of the North American and Latin American market have a limited source of this mineral, and guess which countries have the largest source of antimony. Russia and China.

Some powder available. Maybe not exactly what I’m looking for, but covers the range of most calibers. Hornady is filling our shelves with bullets. Sierra not so much. Plenty of fired brass available. Primers can be had in a limited way if you are ready to pay $130/1000. Meanwhile, the shelves are full of factory ammo. Mostly at $2/round for common rifle ammo like .270, .308 and 30/06. Handgun ammo in 9mm running around $20/ box of 50. I’ve bought 9mm range ammo delivered around $15/box. I see the availability coming back, but prices are not coming down. We’re not going to ever see primers at $30/1000 again. This is in Montana.

Speaking to an importer, I was informed that due to being such a small portion of the worlds firearm market, it’s almost impossible to get products from over seas. Due to the lack of supply we are experiencing extortionate price hikes for both firearms and what little components we can get.

Buying supplies is a major issue for reloaders. I haven't seen Large Rifle Primers for over 2 years. Powder is available, although at a much higher price. Few quality bullets are available, again at a much higher price. If keeping Ukraine supplied is causing this much problem, imagine how bad it will be if the U.S. were actually involved. Could we supply our military needs? Could we provide ammo to the citizens for protection of our own country? We can't even produce a simple primer for consumer use. I would say we have a major supply problem that the government doesn't want fixed. We have closed all the lead producing facilities in the country, thus causing a bullet manufacturing problem in case of war. I believe it is planned to make us a weaker nation, and it is doing exaxctly that.

If HR584 makes it through congress, that will reduce the number of reloaders and might ease the comment availability.

For example instance. Australia (a small market of about 1million firearms owners) has been told the next time any primers will be imported in to the country is 2025 at the earliest. This is from the importers of Remington, Winchester, federal, CCI, RSW, Fiocchi, etc… everything is two years out at best. ADI (Australian defence industries) produce the AR220X lines of rifle powders (in the USA known as H4895, Varget, etc…) will not provide to the civilian market again until 2024 assuming no more military orders are placed. THEY ARE NO LONGER PRODUCING shotgun, pistol, or low production powders. All efforts are on stable high-use powders only. Brass manufacture is all diverted to Europe. Historically if you look at Australian market it hits a difficulty 3-6 months before and exits difficulty 6-12 months after the USA market place.

Here in Europe about the only primers you can get at the moment are Fiocchi , at a premium price ( 10-12 cent/pc). Many gun shops don’t have any large rifle primers of any brand. Powders that are made in Europe are available at reasonable prices ( Vihtavuori, lovex, ram shot) , the rest is not available anymore .

Maybe if you weren't stocking up on 5 to 10 thousand primers ,I could find a few hundred...haven't been able to buy or reload 35 Remington for going on 2 years...and a few hundred large rifle primers would at least make my Marlin 336 more than a club.. So I ask, yeah get ya some primers but don't hord them all.

According to a congressional inquiry done years back on the military supply plant closures, the US and Europe were left with one plant each to produce one of the primary components to gun powder. The inquiry was about closing the second plant in the US, which did happen. So, apparently, there could be a bottleneck in the system that may show up due to Ukraine. I don't know if that has been rectified or not. As far as I can tell, it hasn't, and they said they couldn't expand Radford anymore than it is, which is where it is made.

I'm a bit slow, but I fail to see how a year long war in a foreign country has any affect on US commercial supply. We went through years of Korea, Vietnam, Sandpit 1 & 2 with no ill effects. Government arsenals generally supply war efforts. Are government employees sent out to buy up stock at Cabela's, BassPro, Academy, and local gun shops? Unlikely.

The powder used in artillery shells is COMPLETELY different than the powder we utilize in small arms reloading. And manufactured at completely different facilities!

Not entirely true. The primary chemicals used in most U.S. artillery propellent (Nitroglycerin and Nitrocellulose) are also used in gunpowder for small arms. If you're Alliant Techsystems Inc. or General Dynamics and are given a $10 million contract to produce of gunpowder for loading firearm ammo for the civilian market, and a $10 billion contract to produce artillery propellent for the U.S. military, guess which contract is going to get first priority in production and use up most if not all of these raw material.
