For factory ammo they may not be as large as the others, but bullets for reloading...they have a strong share there.

correct, but they dont sell components to law enforcement, pretty much just ammo.

ATK and Olin would seem the big suppliers for agency ammunition, in NY, or any other state. Definitely this is one to keep an eye on.

Vista Outdoors has the bulk of LE ammo sales, and winchester/olin has the majority of the rest. if they would both get on board it would be a new game.

Chinese proverb states that a journey of a thousand miles starts with the first step. This is the first step in showing the economic terrorists that they are in the boat too. WE as consumers can pressure the other companies to go along with Hornady on this as well as other gun companies. Companies must be made to understand that THEIR PRODUCTS is what is under attack as well as THEIR BOTTOM LINE!

thats the general idea of what i was getting at in my first post of the thread.

Brit/Sou.African guy in town has a Churchill quote in his store, '...The Optimist sees opportunity in Adversity'. Yeah, if Hornady is the sole warrior it won't mean much. If say the NRA started a campaign to reduce CC use by, 20% for ALL purchases and as much as possible for all sporting goods purchases that would get the banksters attention. The Visa link is to show the desire these thieves have to take over the U.S. retail economy and skim their cut. The Vig doesn't have to be 40%/week if the pie is big enough. Some retailers are very CC dependent, others not so. I have talked up the idea of encouraging non CC use to a few in town and they all would like to see a shift away from CC if the volume of business wasn't affected. As stated, just 20% would get the attention of the execs.
Ever since learning of Visa's plot to do away with cash (don't laugh) I have started using cash/checks much more.
