Steel tariff. It has an affect on all metal products.


You can't defend a known issue that is affecting the global market.
Well an import ban could have an effect, however that was not mentioned in the previous posts...

The value of the metal in a cartridge is very small. Additionally the tariff only applies to raw steel to be manufactured into products. If tariffs were applied directly to ammo that would be a different story.

One year ago copper was over $3.00 per pound. Today Copper is under $2.75 per pound. You didn't mention what ammo you were looking at, but at $20+ per box i'm guessing the price of copper is what you should be looking at anyways.
