Though I'm sure there is a lot of scrap lead out "there", I can't help but think what this will do to it's cost!

Kevin, the EPA is out of control! Buy up now or be left behind!

.22 ammo will be the first to suffer!

I checked the "market price" of lead today on the international exchanges and it is around 97 Cents per pound-so I don't see shutting down the Missouri smelter as really affecting the availability of lead in the United States. There are lead smelters in both the Mexico and Canada and the I am sure that their production will more than make up for the loss of the Missouri smelter.

Before we start a run on lead like we did on ammo, please let me get mine first then make it scarce by everyone hoarding.
