tariffs raising the price of pellets

[AtlasAirguns]

I suspect China prices will go up 20-30% come February.

Luckily I only retail JSB.

American made lead pellets? Outside of rebrands and small dealers, the reason I don't see that happening overnight presumably because of lead regulations.

@Northeastbeast
Clarify, please?
Is the 25% tariff on Chinese goods you mentioned a new thing, or has it been in force for a while?
Thanks

I'm not sure what they worry is all about. Historically tariffs work really well.

Agreed!
They have been known to work really well to protect industries from unfair(?) competition. to open international markets for home country goods, and to help farmers.
However, in this instance, used as a cudgel, the results may be very different.
The benefit may be likened to the myth of trickledown economics.
And seriously cause trickle-up inflation.

just my too levies

Not to be argumentative but I thought the tariff had not been ratified nor implemented yet.

NSA slugs are made in Missouri i believe so the tariff wont effect me as thats mostly what i use as far as slugs go. But the JSB pellets we all use so many of is another story. We'll have to wait and see how this plays out.
