Thread: no lead from 2021

First, without a demand, there is simply no need to supply.

yep and I remember the cheap nasty shit that was available fiocchi and b&p
I don't doubt you gq but h&f aint interested the suppliiers to the 2 other shops and the hull agent not interested either.
given your example which I remember to be reasonably correct in relation to supply 9 out of 10 waterfowl hunters.
can you honestly say there,l be a rush to supply less than 1 out of 10 hunters.
I hope your right and I'm wrong and supply is widespread and various but I wouldn't bet the farm on it.

[/QUOTE] ihave only ever shot 2 times with lead and only with steel ever since. I can only say that this will push even more to 12G semi autos which is not a bad thing.[/QUOTE]

id be more inclined that subgaugers might go the 2 3/4 inch steel route and lightweight 12,s those that can afford or want to.
but why 12 gauge semi,s and why would it be a good thing 300calman??
