I was at the sporting goods store the other day, one that usually has a pretty good stock of all reloading supplies and they had plenty of primers, mostly CCI and Winchester. But I did notice that .223 ammo was sky high in price. Close to $8 a box, up from around $4.50 a box this time last year. I asked and he said yes, it was going up and up. I guess that it is time to buy a set of dies for those too, and a bunch of primers just in case.
