Re: Federal Component Rifle Brass Discontinued
While they have numerous brass cases listed on their website, all are noted as "unavailable"... but none are listed on their "Discontinued" listing.

Re: Federal Component Rifle Brass Discontinued
I'm sick and tired of Rem, Win, Fed, Horn, et al messing with the reloading community. They have had us bent over a fence with our britches down for a long time. They are not your friend. They answer to stockholders and not shooters and many of those stockholders are not only not our friends, but some are our bitter enemies. The National Shooting Sports Federation is their shill. American Rifleman is not far behind.

It’s a business decision and in any business, if you don’t reap a decent profit, which is where Capitalism comes from, you drop that item.
So be it…….it’s just a void that will be gladly filled by others.

I suspect there is a lot more money to be made in assembled ammunition over components. Particularly if you have contracts

This might be the reason you can buy Swift ammunition now but can't get ahold of A-frame bullets.

Re: Federal Component Rifle Brass Discontinued
I concur it is all going to loaded ammunition. As Six said, hopefully someone will come along to fill the void. -Tutt

Re: Federal Component Rifle Brass Discontinued
I imagine an incredible amount of loaded ammo is going to Ukraine. That would contribute to the scarcity of components.... Might revitalize the big open-pit copper mines too like it did during Vietnam.
