Boge, I live in Mississippi and resent the inference that ammo made in Mississippi will be sub par. We are glad to have the jobs here and have a dedicated workforce. As with anything else a company has to stay competitive. When greedy workers demand too much companies will move.

In 2009 21.9% of the people in your state lived in poverty. Winchester is locating there for one & one reason only & it isn't for the culture. They can pay dirt cheap wages and zero benefits. Enjoy the new plant in Oxford that Haley Barbour gave all the concessions to with Federal & YOUR state tax dollars as I'll never buy anything from them again if I can help it.

People wanted cheap ammo so Win. is in the process of moving to MS and have folded their tent in IL and paying half the wages as before. Welcome to the Walmart world. 1,200 jobs lost. As you can see QC has gone out the window as once you shaft your employees co. loyalty goes with it.

The Illinois yankies were no better at loading, inspecting, or quality control. By the end of annual qualifications we had a coffee can full of Winchester Q loads that were duds, with crushed, sideways, or upside down primers, or inverted bullets. All from those great union members in Alton Illinois.

Glad there were no injuries,that's the important thing.
I think the company will have to do right by you on this one,as they certainly should.
