Best explanation.

Do not forget, all once-fired brass is no longer sold to reloaders either.

There doesnt seem to be enough facts in the article to form an opinion

Remember that little Iran Contra incident?
I wouldn't believe anything I read as being absolute fact.
What is readable, isn't always what is real.
The end result is poundage, and nothing else, except a margin of error.

Not true.

The report says, “The amount of surplus ammunition is now so large that the cost of destroying it will equal the full years’ salary for over 54,000 Army privates.”

....or four politicians take for a full year !!

 

[Jeddak]

Not true.

I've credible reports that once fired military brass is shredded and sold to smelters.
