That would be a funny meeting to listen in on.
The speculators are everywhere and making investments in things that are moving.. Since the economy is in the tank and stocks for the most part are really floundering, might as well invest in powder and primers, if they are selling at double what they were a month or now two ago.
To be honest, i really don't blame them.. I have a extra 1000 Remington Small Rifle Primer and if someone was going to offer me $75 dollars for them, I will sell them, but otherwise I will hang on to them. Same thing for the Varget powder. I bought plenty back after the last Presidential debate when Obummer said that he wanted to ban guns. I stocked up on thousands of bullets, primers, powder, and filled ammo cans with 22lr. (everything i use) at the low prices. Now if someone really wants it. I can part with some, but I am not pushing it either.
