Primers are the real choke point. If you can't get primers, you'll have to resort to the old-fashioned black powder with a frizzen and a pan.

Powder is scarce, but primers are scarcer.

Yep, we've been trying to find primers for awhile. I got excited when I went to one gun store and they told me "Sure, they had primers".....one box of 100. (.223) That's it. And even if they had more, they were limiting people to 5 boxes.

DH even heard one of the salesmen at his favorite gun shop tell a customer that Dillon Press is waay behind on orders. Anyone just now planning to learn to reload isn't going to get their equipment from Dillon any time soon.
