Component Watch

Tell us what you're hunting for

The Component Search reads 10,204 listings every morning. Name the powder, primer, bullet or brass you want and we'll email you the morning it turns up in stock — once, when it lands, not every day it sits there. Put a price ceiling on it and we'll stay quiet until it's under your number.

How the matching works

Every word you type has to appear in the retailer's own listing. No synonyms, no guessing. Varget finds Varget in every size at every store. H4350 8 lb finds only the 8 lb jugs. CCI small pistol finds CCI small pistol primers. The narrower you are, the fewer emails you get — and if you're not sure a phrase works, the box under it shows what it matches right now.

Price ceilings use the same unit the search pages quote: powder is in hand per pound — the retailer's hazmat and shipping spread over a single container, because on one pound that fee is most of what you pay — primers are per 1,000, and bullets and brass are per 100. A listing whose box count the retailer doesn't state has no per-unit price, so it can't be held to a ceiling and won't be sent against one.

What we do and don't do with your address

It's used to send the alert you asked for, and nothing else. Every email carries a one-click stop link. We sell none of these components, take no affiliate commission, and never rank a retailer for paying us — the order is price, lowest first.

Stock last read September 20 at 7:16 AM Mountain time. A retailer that fails to load is missing from that run rather than carried over stale, so an alert always reflects a live read. Stock moves fast — check the store before you count on it.
