The militaries of the world have always been the primary buyers of smokless powder and other propellants.
Sporting ammunition has always been a distant second.
Active (that's a key word) handloaders represent a tiny, TINY fraction of the propellants used in the world.
Everybody loves capitalism in theory--until it doesn't go our way.
Conspiracy theories. It explains everything these days. Sigh......
Someone else gets it. Handloaders have always sucked hind tit. We get the leftovers and nothing else. Every handloader in the world could quit, not buy 1 single item ever again and it wouldn’t effect their bottom line one bit.
