Skeet,

Environmetal ("Environ") has the whole thing on their website regarding the Remington issue. It seems as though Remington couldn't produce the stuff quick enough or it was choking the market (i.e., keeping supply low) so that it could keep the price high.

Environ has hired a consultant or two to try and get it up to speed to mass produce the ammo in house. I bought some of its first in house stuff when they first came out with it, and while the shells worked fine they used the paper cover instead of a nice crimp on it.

I actually hope that they do this and do it well. It is nice to see new companies entering the hunting scene. Plus, Remington seems to be having some troubles financially related to underfunding its pension plan.
