I don't disagree but that won't help with the primer shortage... supply chains worldwide are disrupted so components are slowing production...
Ok, so we need more component manufacturers too.

Re: Ammo Shortage Will Last Deep into 2021

We need more, smaller ammo manufacturers. I fully expect the Harris administration to try to squelch production of ammo for civilian sale, via taxes, regulatory harassment, and financial harassment. ATK is the biggest ammunition manufacturer in the world, and they have a lot of military and government contracts, as well as supplying ammo for Federal, Speer, and CCI brands. Would not surprise me to see the feds use their government contracts to pressure ATK into cutting back, keeping ammo prices high(er), requiring retailers to background check for ammo, and all kinds of other nonsense.
