I wish there was something in there toward Nosler partially using the new facility for manufacturing mass quantities of full power 10mm loads that they would then sell at an absurdly low cost to the consumer.

Yeah..That would be nice.

However, I think this was  a purchase of an already strong revenue line.

Nice to see a strong supplier of .308 NATO ammo.

I'm about to renew my acquisition of a .308 rifle. I was about to when the run on guns started. Prices are starting to come back down.
