Anyone else heard this?

This is caused by ammo now qualifying for government union jobs, so 5 cartridges sit around not working while they all watch one work. End result is a 5/6 FTF rate, and the ones that do fire are too fat now so the expanded cases cause FTE issues.

They are also going to mandate the new "smart bullet" technology later this year. It's a bullet that will only fire if you have enough mental capacity to not injure yourself or anyone else. My guess is there will be a lot of guns that suddenly just won't work anymore.

I was told... if you plant bullets in the field, they will multiply. Yup, no water or fertilizer needed

Yeah, I'm still waiting for my bullet trees to sprout...should be any day now!

wtf?!

Don't know if this is true or not but a friend of mine said that they are going to be adding an ingredient to gunpowder so your bullets don't work after a year or a few months.

Who let the junior high kid post?

Jesus, guys lighten up.
A few years back there were studies about how to put "taggants" in batches of gunpowder to assist in tracking ammunition used in crimes. The powder companies killed it because it might have caused instability in the powder INCLUDING deterioration of the powder.
That somebody wants a way to render your ammunition inert is entirely plausible.
Whether they can do it is unlikely

That is actually a powder is being used and expermented in other countries from the USA. I seeing the dudes that were shot at us, Will it be used in the USA I think so. We even supplied explosive ammo bullets to the other side....

Couldn't have said it better, myself.

The bullet with experation dates is best used for Snipe hunting at night.

No. The new powder prevents the gun from being fired if it is held sideways.

Only in CA, in line with the new ammo reporting requirements and prohibition on ammo web orders.

I assume you've got a link or 2 for that??

Interested in the "explosive ammo bullets" stuff too.

Yeah my father in law tried to pull that one on me too, it's like telling people if you pee in the pool there's a chemical that turns your pee blue

I think it turns it red, at least that's what I tell my nephews when the little hell hounds come over to swim

FUD CITY.

Funny how these stupid rumors start; then they start spreading eventually repeated as 'FACT'.

Somewhere along the line, friend of mine changes to a guy who works for Federal Ammo..etc....

The evolution of a rumor is fun to track.
