Mesabikid44: I had forgotten about the lead smelters going away in America.
I fear that you may be right in your prediction that things are going to get worse in the future (next couple of years).
Did three "gunshops" yesterday and nothing in the way of rimfires but some 17 HMR ammo at one of them.
I have never bought 22 ammo from a mail order outlet like Mule Deer suggests - I wonder if the high prices and then the shipping costs on top of that will further discourage us 22 Hunters/shooters?
I had not heard of the copper smelters being regulated into oblivion - yikes on that.
