Thankfully the order was resinded about a week later. In all this government hype about going "green", they'd do away with the ultimate recycling program. Other than getting the casings from a military shooting range to my reloading bench, there is no "carbon footprint". Just a minimum amount of processing, which my arm provides the power to work the press, the case gets recycled numerous times. Shredding and smelting the cases consumes way more energy.
Companies such as Georgia Arms make much of their business from reloading military casings, and during a time of high unemployment, why put more people out of work?
