[QUOTE="tRidiot, post: 2475453, member: 9374"] All that "scrap lead" you're talking about being recycled never went to that lead smelter in Herculaneum. That was a [B]primary [/B]lead smelter. So other than that, nothing has really changed. I agree, though, about the contracted prices and I do think we will see a significant and permanent jump in .22 prices, and likely other types of ammo as well. Not to mention, get ready for the .gov to restrict or completely ban lead ammunition... they've been wanting to for years, and they're probably going to continue trying. There's no real reason for them not to... it's not like they're going to be voted out of office or anything. It's sad.... I remember just 3-4 years ago when we had WWB .45 FMJ at 34c/round and Federal .223 at 36c/round. You could find as much of either as you wanted any time you walked in the door, essentially. .22 I don't know much about, as I'd never bought a single box of .22 in my life until about a year ago. Oh well.... it's a brave new world, right? [/QUOTE]
