Is anyone else tracking the copper supply?
I don't think we're going to see the end of a buck a round for ammo after this panic buying is over. I ran across this link about copper shortages.

Copper is needed to make brass.
And it's going to get worse. Wind farms and electric cars take a crazy amount of copper.
I'm guessing steel or polymer cased ammo is the future.
I've read that you can do at least a few reloads for steel cased rifle cases, as long as it's boxer primed.
I hate the thought of shooting steel jacketed bullets. Is there such a thing as copper free ammo?
