man, im just going to switch to depleted uranium.
That policy will likely get us ALL killed.
Idiots.

I know.
Why don’t we just return the favor?
Might have to.
Hope you are doing well.

Is recycling of existing ammo a way to get around the lack of new production?
Or steel bullets?
Doing wonderful. I even found a way to convince my Wife to let me get a gym membership again. I’ll probably never hit any of my old PR’s again, but it’s nice to be getting back into some shape other than “round”.
I return the sentiment. I hope all is well in your world...
Your powder; buy it cheap, stack it deep, and keep it dry.
I’ve been tempted to pick up a Brown snd Sharpe 000 turning machine. Feed it a bunch of bronze with diameters in calibers I shoot.
Works for Barnes...
Going to skyrocket?
In the last few years a brick of 22s has gone from 12 to 14 dollars to 75 and above. What’s next a dollar a round 22s?
If you like ammo for your gun you can keep your ammo for your gun. Period! (if you can pay for it. Self defense for the rich and not the serfs)
The only reason someone would seek to remove your ability to resist deadly force,
is that they foresee a time that they will be using deadly force to impose their will on you.
There is so much lead produced in Mexico it is ridiculous to think this will effect ammo prices.
There are lead mines and smelters in both Canada and Mexico, and there are no restrictions on importing lead bars into the US.
A standard size is a 2” thick x 4” wide x 8”, 99% pure lead brick, which weighs 26.25/lbs. There are 7000 grains to a pound, and a round of .45 ACP US Army Ball FMJ weighs 230 grains. So you’re looking at about 30 rounds per pound of lead, so a single lead bar can give you about 800 rounds.
They are using non lead wheel weights in my area. They throw them in the bucket with the lead weights, screws up melting and casting.
Don’t melt old car batteries, they mix stuff in that screws up the casting and is more toxic than the lead.
I’ve considered ordering bulk ingots and just storing them in the barn, not like they will spoil.
Steel bullets are illegal to the best of my knowledge.
GUN CONTROL PING
The next “American President” needs to repeal all EPA regulations issue since Jan. 2008.

The Tao of Republican Orthodoxy
There is, in the Declaration:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
