Yeah, I thought the same thing. You gonna melt down your own slugs?

I've never reloaded any ammo but, it looks like that will be happening in the very near future. I'm wondering if skeet shooting, rabbit and bird hunting will even be able to continue for many folks who have older guns or use chokes. I'm going to have to spend some time schooling up on whether it's okay to use steel shot in my own guns. This is ridiculous, has nothing to do with the harmful effects of lead and everything to do with gun control.

This whole deal seems to fly in the face of logic. We use lead in far more items than ammo. Batteries, lead shielding for everything from nuclear reactors to x-ray and CT Scan rooms. The list is long.

Honestly brother, I have no idea what I'm going to do. I don't know how to do any of that really besides watching others reload their own.

I've been saving up for a trip to Europe next summer, and I'm betting that buying the equipment to make my own ammonia will take a big chunk out of that. The trip means a lot to me, I plan on seeing where my family comes from in Wales and Scotland, visit friends in Germany and Poland, and hopefully visiting Spain...as well as introducing all of the beautiful ladies of these countries to the "American Special" (me), hahaha. But I know I'll end up spending thousands on ammo over the next few years if I don't look into making my own.

This is such an unnecessary thing, just one more thing for myself and many others to worry about. That's why I'm so mad about it, so needless!
