I wonder if their insurance rates will go up.

Crazy stuff, but manufacturing explosives is pretty crazy stuff, I'ld imagine anyway.

Hope everybody is okay.

Between the fire and the U.N. ATT being signed by "O" Communist, that will further erode powder supplies from imports...

Do we in the U.S.A in terms of ammo production here have to be concerned. Or is this strickly imported ammo concerns.

Not sure just what will be affected by the ATT, it will have to be rammed thru congress for approval.  Tat should not happen, but this current Government Gone Wild will try anything and everything!   

However with the VV powder plant fire that by itself may limit supplies to the US.  I don't use their powders, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't use them.

Good points, no doubt. In terms of commodity prices, we are seeing a rise as well which can affect componants due to Inflationary conditions. This money creation out of thin air is showing itself more and more. Corporations are reporting weak earnings and things people need are rising,food,energy,apparel. Money pouring into commoditys raises prices. McDonalds reported low earnings today, the dollar menu joint.
