ATF (Obama) Reclassifies Wetted Nitrocellulose

[Shadowrider]

So the takeaway I get is that the manufacturers aren't going to be able to produce powder or primers. And they are retroactively in a state of non-compliance?

Sounds about par for the course.

Reader's digest version:



Leave it to the BATFE under the Obama Administration to potentially adversely impact the procurement of ammunition by the Defense Dept.

The real question is, should the BATFE be sold any ammunition EVER AGAIN?

I'm sure they'll do this for whoever they are procuring from....

Because of the diminished likelihood of wetted nitrocellulose exploding, “ATF will consider variance requests to store the wetted material under an alternative arrangement.”

I'm not taking any chances. I ordered four eight pounders from Powder Valley while they have it and before a price hike. If it's BS and nothing changes ,I'll shoot it up one day.

Was in Walmart this afternoon. The shelves were stocked to the brim, with more ammo than I've seen them carry during the entire reign our our Dear Leader Barry Soetoro, with one exception, 22LR. Wasn't a .22 rimfire in the house...

Here in Poteau they don't even have a place on the shelf for .22 anymore. Everything else is there, but not a lick of .22.

Yet Academy has it back out on the shelf with the rest of the ammo with no limit. Amazing that Walmart has an issue.

Walmart likely doesn't want to deal the ahole resellers, I wouldn't

I would think that the days of the resellers would be about at an end with other stores getting just about all they want. The banner at the top of the forum had I think it was cabella's selling unlimited .22 for a $12 or so flat shipping fee.
If you like Remmington .22 ammo. I and my guns don't.
