Cheddite Primers in stock at BP and PR

[Cold Spring]

Cheddite 209’s have now disappeared from BP’s website but still showing at $79.99/M in stock at PR. Plus tax, shipping and hazmat. So I called BP and asked why Cheddites not showing at all versus being indicated as “out of stock” as in the past? He said they’re totally out of stock and doesn’t know if/when they’ll get a new shipment ….. not on the horizon right now. As most everyone knows, Cheddite 209’s are made in France. It’s just my opinion but happenings over the past month in Europe might shift production of primer compounds to mixes for military rifle primers.

I also asked about shotgun powders and learned the powders are coming in sporadically in ~ hundred pound lots, and no way to predict when and what they’ll get next.

Cheddite 209's are still being sold by Ballistic Products. I saw them yesterday, it says they are in stock. They have changed their website and a minimum purchase is a sleeve of 5000 for $319.80 plus hazmat and shipping. Limit is 5K per month per customer.
