Oh... what about....
Well, since nobody is taking any of this to heart, let me ask a question for those of you 'in the know' with regards to the bullet making industry.....
What about OEM bullet manufacturers?
I mean, many of us know that there are only a couple of manufacturers of smokeless powder either in the US or immediate, traditional trade companies like Nobel. And many of those powders we buy are available in two or more trade names.
What about bullets? I'm pretty sure that Speer, Sierra, and other brand names of bullets actually manufacture their own, but what about, say, Remington, Winchester and those? Don't Remington and Winchester simply buy their bullets made to spec? Who makes the bullets that go into military ball ammo for small arms?
We're all feeling the squeeze. I'm sure most reloaders consider quality as well as cost in buying components. Are there any 'sleeper' products out there that are available in 'generic' packages that are in fact the same product as sold for much higher prices with respected brand names?
