Tungsten prices have went up considerably over the summer!!! Called a half dozen of my suppliers, and yes, all of them have went up, a bunch.
I've heard several rumors like, some new EPA ruling. Making them change the way they get it out of the ground and such. Talked to several ammo makers,
to verify they went up on them also. Yep, it's confirmed. From what I'm getting, it has went up $8 to $11 a pound more than it was back in the spring. OUCH!!! As if it wasn't high enough already!

What does the EPA have to do with price of tungsten? It is all coming from China.

Don't know what the Paris treaty has to do with it either, but it's all connected.

China should drop out of that baloney like Trump did for us
