Primer manufacturing- Why not ?

[John Kepler]

Primers ain't beer! YOU got an advanced degree in high-energy chemistry and willing to work around large quantities of lead styphenate? Go ahead, you can have my place in line...I did my time in that kind of environment and still carry scars...others weren't as lucky!

The Olin-Winchester primer plant is/was located in the middle of bum-fu**ing nowhere near Orwell, Ohio...had portions of it blow-up fairly frequently, and was a registered "Super-Fund" site while it was still being used. Permitting of a new production facility would be next to impossible from about 4 different directions!
