no brick Jitterbug , H &Y had four 100 packs left in the box so i have a total of 400 primers .
400 primers is a lot of primers, a lifetime supply for most people. I wouldn’t worry too much about getting more right off. I’d be thinking about buying more when the supply increases and prices improve.
Add another 0 and maybe /EdSorry JeffB1961, I thought you had a whole brick. It sure looks good in your picture!
CatamountRob makes a good point, too… 400 shots is a lot of shots, especially when you’re getting familiar w/your firearm, developing a loading routine, and doing load development. Might be even easier (certainly cheaper!) to replace the primers a tray at a time, if you can find them locally.
Be safe, be careful, and “have a blast!”
Your barrel looks good. A couple passes with a bore brush wouldn't hurt to loosen up any crud, if you haven't done so already.
I have one of those hand held steam cleaners, got it on ebay for about 30 bucks. It works great for cleaning a very dirty barrel and parts.
Don't look bad. I try to get my patches to come out of the barrel clean, no marks but a few of my guns it doesn't happen. Even if I run 100 patches down.i went over it with the brass brush and then with one of the nylon brushes when i could feel the brass brush wasn't making good contact after several minuets of scrubbing with the wonder gel . glad i got the nylon brushes as someone here suggested to me a while back .
hers a pic with the wonder gel swab bottom and dry patch on top . is this clean enough ?
