When I’m in my woodshop, I planed many boards.
But the Deep State planNed many dirty tricks and “incidents”.
At exactly the same time Brandon cancels commercial sales from Lake City.
When they say “produces bullets,” I assume that they mean “ammunition.”
“chemical compound building “
Primer room?
Perhaps just another virtue signaling nod to the grabbers? There may not be any “surplus” for a while, due to world events. It’d be like them to take credit for an unavoidable circumstance.
The plane! The plane!
Quite likely.
Probably not. They are playing with scary stuff. There’s a reason the various scary things are in different buildings. Cause sometimes...
LOL! I should have corrected the headline in my post but decided to just leave it “as is”.
It’s especially confusing as Hornady produces both bullets for reloading and loaded ammunition.
“Primer room”?
That’s my guess. Chemicals are volatile things and tend to go “boom” when not properly stored and handled. Given the education and experience of the average college graduate these days, I suspect the cause was “operator” error.
Here is another incident of likely operator error from the past day or so. Something that should have been done was probably not done leading to another train derailment. Employees spend too much time on their phones and not enough time on their job duties.
“I-25 both directions closed after train derails north of Pueblo”
bttt
Plane nonsense
Very good ammo. Have used it for years. Decades in fact.
The Hornady explosion was in the primer manufacturing building.
Handling primer compounds is a very dangerous business, and why there has been a primer shortage in the U.S. It’s too expensive and difficult to just start a primer factory from scratch.

Hornady Mourns Following Fatal Incident
Hornady is devastated following a fatal incident that took the life of an employee in the primer manufacturing facility.
We are devastated for our employee, their family and loved ones, as well as the entire Hornady team. We are working with all agencies to investigate the cause. This production incident was isolated to our primer facility and did not impact any of the manufacturing facilities. We appreciate the outreach we have received while we grieve the loss of one of our own.

Thanks for that posting.
I suspected primer manufacture as the issue.
Most difficult and dangerous component to manufacture.
Also, the one most in short supply in the ammo chain.
And Vista Outdoor- Largest maker of consumer ammunition announced the sale to a CZ company.This mornign. VSTO. Needs a white knight to save it.
