[QUOTE="teesquare, post: 2715389, member: 56740"] A poor, and high risk investment. The regulatory issues connected to the EPA/OSHA/UL involved in the construction of a new facility means multiple years project in all likelihood.Remember that our current administration is of a similar mindset of the Obama administration - who infamously created the regulations that closed all of the last remaining lead smelters in the USA. SO ALL lead, lead bullets, etc - now come from other countries. By the time a powder facility could wade thru the neck deep bovine feces of government colo-rectal examination , demand will return to sanity - leaving the investors with a wind-suck hole in their wallets. And - for the record..."venture capital" RUINED companies like Remington and others by gobble up and merge tactics - then the board ( big "investment capital" backed stockholders...) drives for profits...screw quality....kind of thinking. NO, we need to all take a deep breath, recognize that WE have created a short term hyper-demand....Calm down, relax and stop buying. If enough folks just sit and wait a little while - maybe 4-6 months - we will see more powder and somewhat lower prices. Never as low as pre-pandemic...but lower than now. [/QUOTE]
