kgunz11 Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Alliant Techsystems (NYSE:ATK) has been awarded a contract from the U.S. Army to continue operating the Lake City Army Ammunition Plant for an additional four years. Under the new contract, ATK will continue to supply small-caliber ammunition through September 2013. The award assures an uninterrupted supply of ammunition to the U.S. military beyond ATK's current 10-year contract. So this means Federal Primers are going to be just as rare for the next 4 years that they are now. I could give a rat about Federal pistol and small rifle primers, but I am going to miss my 210M primers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kgunz11 Posted April 6, 2009 Author Share Posted April 6, 2009 Between the Lake City M118LR and Federal Gold Medal ammo, 210M's are going to be used up. I have 75,000 on order, and I'm told I'm 6 months out. I am also going to work on getting UPS HazMat certified so I can ship powder and primers. Don't give up yet!
