A new US manufacturer of primers. https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/a-third-primer-manufacturer-now-tooling-up-for-production-in-texas-in-2022/?fbclid=IwAR2NnVR2zlUvOUebxqdXqLOwwYjpCsuYouH1D4DJDzSUIMf1et2zUf1bslM


Looks like more pressure testing will be in order.

Cool Cool Cool - one can only hope for some great things to move forward ... maybe the barge with the Chedds on it will loose it's mooring and find it's way to the shore at the same time !!

Heart warming, being in small (onshore) manufacturing, I can't express more my hope for this venture and that many more similar to it. With a background in process and product development I'd love to help but being more than a few miles away can only cheer from the cheap-seats. Damn I hope this plays out....

I just hope we're not let down by the prices.

Considering everything that has gone on, I expect nothing until it happens.

What we see in print and what actually happens have been two different things, concerning most things in life.

Then there is the ever present OMG there is no reloading data for these primers. Can I swap.......

Some how, I doubt Soros is funding this.

On a similar note, I’m seeing a lot of ammo on the shelves in stores. And I bought some powder last week, 1000 SR primers the week before.

Can anyone cite an example where manufacturers have failed to fill a vacuum in a market?

It took Winchester three decades and several changes in ownership/management to reoffer a CF M70.

Hope they are financially sound going in. The direction investment banking is going I don’t think this type of manufacture would have a good enough ESG score to secure any financial loans.

Given an infinite time frame, a void will always be filled- but as John Keynes said: "In the long run we are all dead".
