5 cent per round STATE Tax

[toyman2]

So would this be only for retail?
Adding 5 cents per round per sale could make this expensive.
If this was to pass, I would never buy another round in this state again.

Thank god they cant tax you for what you already have.

Pretty sure that is the goal.

Unless it passes in every state this will make it cheaper to buy online from a state without the tax

The problem will be for people who are reloaders- primers and powder are already too expensive to buy online due to the additional haz mat fees charged. So that stuff I always buy locally.

But how much would the actual tax be according to the way this bill is written? I don't know. If it's a nickel per container of powder, that's nothing. But what would it be for primers? A nickel for each primer? 

Or a nickel per box of 100?

A primer or bullet is not a round.

"There is levied and collected a fee upon the retail sale of all ammunition in an amount equal to five cents per round of ammunition. The fee imposed under this section must be paid by the buyer."

I agree but someone posted that the bill also includes reloading components.

As used in this section, "ammunition" means cartridge cases, primers, bullets, or propellant powder designed for use in any firearm.

Ooops. You're right. I just saw that. Thanks for the correction.

[Spuddieselwwu]

Let's just secede.

I'm kind of wondering about shot?  The upland guys and trap shooters could really get it bad. #8 shot

And build a wall and have New California pay for it.

Just run the line down the crest of the Cascades down to California border with Oregon. East side Oregonians have no love for the west side politics either.

You will probably need a few people behind enemy lines.

Don't lump me in with the "New California" group.  I'm on the west side and I want nothing to do with their crap either.

Look on the bright side at least I'm not discriminating against you because of your gender, race, creed or religion. Just the fact that by looking at the numbers, along with your geographical location, you and/or your neighbors will vote for these sort of Hillary 2016'esq sort of bills. I know we will lose a few good people but I'm willing to sacrifice you guys.
