I just picked up 1000 SP here in Aust. I don't know your prices, but they were $200 which is cheaper than Federal.

Haven't tried them yet so watching here too.

$200 for 1000!!! Wow

Kind of a snarky comment...   Maybe most things are more expensive in Australia than they are in Michigan?  How about the current exchange rate?

So, if you can get them feds are around $245, CCI are $225, and Remi are $245.

 

$245 AUD is about $161 USD.

 

You can get a bit cheaper in QLD ($195 for 1000 Federal) but that's 1000 of km driving (no delivery of Ammo in Aust).

 

Its pay it or don't shoot.

 

I guess this is relevant too:

What is the average income in Australia? According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS), the average weekly earnings for full-time adults was $1,888.80 in November 2023, which equates to an annual salary of approximately $98,000.

Our minimum wage is over three (3) times that of the U.S

 

And how much do you think it costs to send primers in a shipping container by sea from a port in the U.S 10,000 miles to a port in Australia and the trucking to get them to the port and out of the port?

No problem using them in the 14 firearms I load for.

One of our biggest importers  in Australia  Nioa Firearms I'm told enquired about making a primer facility ..they were knocked back by Government intervention, true or not I don't know but it wouldn't surprise me..they want our guns & if they can't get them then why not make it near impossible to purchase ammo or reloading components.

The biggest cost factor to get stuff here is the shipping & insurance..the prices are thru the roof.

We used to have so much manufactured in Australia, now virtually nothing.

White River primers I haven't used so I can't say yay or nay...people still want to shoot so if you want to pay the high price then that's what they will do !!! [ I'm lucky as I have plenty of Federal ]
