    All about economy of scale, looks good for you guys tho since Truflite Barrels and Barnard actions made in NZ and bought all over the world. Would need to make hundreds of thousands to be worthwhile but at least you have Targex as mentioned.

    Used to have Hodgdon Powders made in Scotland but the only way to purchase on the commercial market was after it had been sent to the States to be packadged and re-imported!

    Have heard faint rumours of hobby projectile makers here and there, the gear occasionally turning up on the open market but for the same price you could buy about 30k projectiles for several calibres so why bother?

    Maybe in a real 'end of days' scenario (New World order run by China maybe...) it would be good to have,our money will be worth nothing then anyway!
