    Do you know the difference between re-manufactured and manufactured?

    The brass, that is it. One company uses new brass one uses recycled brass. Quality control is what decides dangerous from safe. If you think Remington/Federal/Winchester hasn't Ka-boomed some firearms you would be mistaken.

    Blackhills ammo considered one of the best = re-manufactured, they also use new brass but they certainly don't make it.

    One of the differences is probably level of investment in automation, maintenance systems, documentation, facilities, and operator training.

    A big budget will potentially get you a well run state of the art factory with automated laser powder and bullet height checks & likely an automated finished bullet weight checks as well. All checks are very likely redundant.

    It is tough to compete with the big boys.
