Every time I go to my local cabelas they’re completely out of CCI SR primers (400?)

heh...I hope you didn't go to my Cabelas...I just cleaned them out of CCI SRP, LRP, LPP, and SPP...

Anything that goes through the progressive press gets CCI...they machine the best...with the vibratory primer tube filler....the CCIs are flawless...the Federal Match....not so much.

I’m guessing you go to west chester, I usually go to the one on Wilmington pike unless the wife drags me to ikea.

I hand prime everything anymore since I switched to an APS tool.

Yep...I drive the 45mins or so up there to West Chester. I hand prime my accuracy stuff...for plinking and 300blk...it's going to either get the Hornady LNL AP or the Lee Bench Primer.... the 308 comp rifle gets the hornady hand prime....but the 300PRC is going to get a Sinclair hand primer dedicated to it....can't wait to get my barreled action back and start some load development. I have to get my skill set back up to the point where I can actually start testing primers and see a difference from one brand/lot to the next. Right now, my shooting skills have diminished to the point where I doubt seating depth experiments would do me much good

Since bass pro took over cabelas a lot of things have changed. I haven't seen any primers at my local cabelas in almost a year.
CCI has a 20% rebate going on. I bought a bunch of CCI primers at a local gun shop for $30 per brick and then sent off to get the 20% rebate. You can also get the 20% rebate from online orders too. It's a yearly rebate that federal does this time of year. Here's a link to that info https://promotions.vistaoutdoor.com/.../120/EntryForm

I’ll probably eventually break down and buy 5k online. Just have to get some money saved up first.
