Hopefully it is an accident and not terrorism.

Just throwing more ammunition at an explosive situation.

Does this mean they made primers there?

SuperBreed · Oct 14, 2023

Says it happened at the chemical compound building. Maybe where they store powder/ primers for factory ammo.

My first thought was, now they are burning ammo factories.

SuperBreed · Oct 14, 2023

Same. Just another to add to the list of factory fires/explosions. I'm sure it's probably nothing though

I've been tryin to find out......What do they actually produce/make there (in that building)?

An Official Journal Of The NRA | Hornady Opens New 150,000-Square-Foot Hornady West Facility in Nebraska

As Hornady grows exponentially, the new facility is just in time to mark its 70th anniversary.

BUT.....I haven't been able to exactly nail it down to the scene, YET.

Not certain about what all is produced in that facility, but...

"Following an investigation, the cause of the explosion was found to be accidental. The explosion occurred during the mixing process of the primer compound.'
