Does any place have small and large rife primers?

NO. Next time they are available......if Trump wins, purchase at least 2-3 thousand of the primers you need. If Biden wins, no telling when you will see them again.
The Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well.
Our Sportsman's Warehouse got a batch in a month ago, but, all large rifle. Haven't seen any small rifle or pistol since April. Just means I stopped shooting those for fun until stores stock back up. I always keep a specific amount on hand no matter what. The surplus I use for recreational purposes.
How much you keep in stock is up to you and your perception of how much you will need in some sort of crisis.

Do you believe it will be due to demand or do you fear he will shut down the entire gun industry from firearms to powder, bullets, primers or anything else? He already said, and it is on video, (though he now denies it) he will make the fake Mexican failed democrat candidate gun czar in charge of disarming people.
^^^^You can't imagine how much I hope you are right. All I can do is vote.
Rather have Covid 19 than Biden 2020.
Oz never gave nothing to the Tin Man, that he didn't already have.
I think I have 500 lined up. A guy on another forum has offered to let me have 500 for what they cost him. I am going to give him more than he is asking There is no doubt that he could get quite a bit more for them the way things are now.
Watch out for the hazardous material shipping fee!
In the last couple of days, found some CCI 500 small pistol primers in my LGS. $9.99 for a pack of 100!

Interesting that Sportsman's Warehouse had some sp magnum primers the other day for normal price. You LGS is price gouging.
sorry, but i agree with gacop this is a supply and demand economy.
i am selling at 60 per k and only have a few sr left.
left overs from my retail days.
you need to remember the retailers cannot get anymore either.
this is the 3rd big run on primers since the 90's.
i learned long ago...buy big when prices are "normal"
normal changes. in the 90's it was $10/12 per k, then 22-25 per k and today people consider 30-35 per k normal.
I had a few going into this mess but what I usually do is post something on a local gun friendly online classifieds board and do a for sale or trade on what I need. I picked up a mess of small pistol and small rifle primers in July. Traveled less than 40 miles for the transactions. I do this a lot for reloading supplies when I can't find what I want online.
NOT FOR THE GUY SELLING FOR A LIVING
if you make 5 bucks per k of primers and you sell 20k per week that is $100 PROFIT.
EVERY WEEK . paying for the rent or the food.
if primers dry up...how do you make up for the lost income??
you raise the price on what you can get till the supply returns to "normal".
the guy sell the primers has to eat too.
if you notice, as a rule walmart does not do this...their base is so big and wide that single product issue do not bother them.
they sold 22 rimfire ammo for the original price,when they had any...they had fix price contracts with the suppliers.
gew companies are big enough to do that.
