[QUOTE="Veteran, post: 2810819, member: 118038"] All the primer companies we have left over here are owned by 1 company now. Except winchester. Vista Outdoors owns Remington, Federal, and CCI. Winchester not yet......but no one cried foul at an anti trust level. Monopoly on ammo and primers seems fine. Lately, I have been trying Unis Ginex which has made primers since 1951 in Bosnia. They are available and cost less. So far they go boom every time. Need to do some chrono testing too. They do seem a little harder to seat in new brass. I dont know if Australia has its own primer manufacturing or not? But you must speak to your politicians about making your own. Things are gonna get tough w China. You wont likely be able to get imports even then. I sure hope you have some plants there that can make primers and brass, bullets, and finished ammo. I know you have ADI for powder. But ocean going logistics are not going to work if we go at it w China. Then we will never see retumbo......or Varget....... Each ally needs its own internal production in this crazy future we are approaching......globalism and global trade aint gonna be what it was in the 80s. save your decapped primers and get ready to make your own if you have to.
