We just upgraded our license to a type 10, we've been a type 06/08 for about 5 years. So yea, typically we get drums of powder, occasionally I will do a group buy with friends and order a 45lb drum and parcel it out into 10lb lots.
I'm in the process of relocating to WA with my new business (kinda've an off-shoot of what I currently do) depending on your county, washington is very friendly (by comparison) to business and FFL's. You need to file your FFL, I would recommend a type 07, it's only slightly more expensive but gives you a lot more lattitude, file your MBL, and then you need inspections from the local fire department. I have talked to both the city and county of snohomish (where I'm looking to locate) and they were very open and friendly to my requests for information. You also need to file the washington state firearms dealers license from the DOL. Grand total in paperwork you're looking at under $1000 to get started. However, if you're just filing it for the fun of it, it's not really worth it.
My company makes commercial loading equipment, I'm still in startup phase, but I just got back from the PNW going on a tour showing off one of my new machines and got a very positive response, I still need to finish the development of a few other machines, put some money in the bank, and then it's off to .wa
The big limitation to manufacturing ammo here in .ca is the amount of powder we are allowed to store on site, we are limited to 750lbs. Both oregon and washington have a limit of 5000lbs without additional paperwork. So from that perspective the only ones I will have to make happy with my storage is the ATF.
Sounds like my wife, only she's always "looking in"But you have to be clean, as soon as there are debris around, everything gets much harder.
