I don't know about the wads, but did just talk with our normal local supplier yesterday about primers. They said they hadn't been able to get any Remington primers at all and were also having some trouble getting Win primers.
The shop's comment was that they were getting excuses about Iraq consuming all the primers, but neither the shop, nor I, find that a particularly adequate explanation. Unless there's a shortage of some key raw material I'm thinking that's just an excuse for something else ... like maybe price increases. The shop also told me that their primer prices for win and rem are going up to around $120 per case... about 15% increase.
