I have seen that as well, but I am going to call them tomorrow.
If it is tourist season, why can't we shoot them?

Looks like they've suspended production on just about every ammo and bullet type I use to hunt with.... most hunters use to hunt with!

If you go to THEIR webpage, right on top, it says if you didn't hear it from them, it probably ain't true! I am going to call because all the bullets, for three different rifles I load for are on that list...

If it is true, then you know that they are taking the Obama buyout and dumping on the American public that has brought them to the point where they are.
Folks ain't got a sense of humor no more. They don't laugh they just get sore.

Need to follow the rules. Just hard to determine which set of rules to follow
Now the rules have changed again.

They pay the firearms and ammunition manufacturers to slow or stop production to the public. Funded in the Obama care tax bill.

Hmmm, .223 55gr FMJBT is not a popular round, and 115gr 9mmFMJ is not a popular bullet? I smell something bad.
Life's concerns should be about the 120lb pack your trying to get to the top of the mountain, and not the rock in your boot.

Regardless of the pressure put on them by the FEDGOV what Arms Company would willing accept money to basically cut their own throat?!?!?  If any company would and or should fight it tooth and nail you'd think it would be the Arms Companies first!  Thats is unless the lying back stabbing Corksuckers (obamanation) are baiting them with promises of exclusive arms contracts.... whic of course would be a lie too...  Loco

An awful lot of A-max, and HP match bullets on that list. I smell something bad too.

I understand what they're trying to do, was just passing it on to everyone.

I agree with you Mike and thanks for the info. It just seems some are waving the conspiracy flag unnecessarily. Or I am misreading their intent.
