          not nearly enough...


          I'd post more but thats all we are limited to.

          Crazyname, the Doe Run plant has no effect on ammo production. they dealt with producing lead for medical fields and others.
          However, since no one seems to get that....there is now a lead shortage and prices are up to $15 a pound almost. I'd be willing to sell some to you at $10 a pound....

                  On the chance that you are serious and not well informed, nothing is going to happen. The plant that is closing only made lead for medical and research things. Lead for bullets is mostly recycled. Most bullet casters have an ample supply to avoid price spikes. Relax and skip the urge to hoard.

                    You mean it's not true? Wonder if it's too late to cancel that 200k bullet order I sent to XTreme.

                      That is a good idea. I have four troy ounces of gold from all of the prospecting I have done. I wonder if I can melt it down in my palmer hot pot and make some .50 AE gold bullets... now THAT would be sweet...

                      Yeah but lead goes from the hospital walls and roofs to the recyclers, and from them to the bullets makers, and from them to us! This is terrible!
                      By shorting out the hospitals with new lead, we will never ge their old lead, they will have to find other things to use, this will dry up the supply and now we will be forced to find different metals to shoot down the barrels because lead will cease to exist...
                      Game over man, game ****ING OVER! We are all DOOMED!

                      Oh well, Merry ****ing Christmas.

                        Well, I am pretty sure the USA doesn't make any computers, cell phones, TV or a lot of other things, the prices on those items hasn't gone up, I believe the opposite is true. So now we will be getting lead from China or Mexico where they don't have an EPA and they can burn all the dirty coal or whatever else the feel like to smelt the lead. I am thinking the price should be coming down.
