If ammunition were as regulated as Sudafed

59. Recap...

The OP, in a nutshell, said "amount of ammunition purchased needs controlled like pseudophedrine". I said, "then people will just MAKE ammo". To which the OP responded with some silly arbitrary amount of ammo precursor restriction (100grn powder). I responded by pointed out how silly and unconstitutional such an act would be (restricting reloading supplies to one or two shots, lol). And then you started talking about possible limitation on reloading suplies... ?!?

To respond more accurately to your first comment in the subthread; Yes, you can make your own single-based smokeless powder (you'll need a nitrating-acid solution and cellulose). Making a simple black powder mixture is even easier. Lead Styphnate primer filling is a bit trickier, but phosphorus and/or chlorate based priming substitutes exist. All of these ingredients are over the counter. Primer caps/anvils can be reused several times... or you could just stock up on 10,000 primers for like $150. Brass for pistols can be used dozens of times - pretty much shoot it till you lose it. Rifle Brass probably 5-10 times before stress rupture. Lead can be easily melted from tire weights and cast/swaged into bullets.
Firearms and ammo are like 200 year old technology... it's pretty basic science. Lots of people reload.

Nevertheless, a more apt comparison to making your own ammo would be making your own pseudophedrine at home. Also possible at home and not all that difficult, just uncommon. Junkies just buy the psuedofed instead because its WAY easier than synthesizing.

But I digress. The OP compared BUYING pseudophedrine to BUYING ammo. It had nothing to do with the restriction of ammo or pseudophedrine preparation reagents/materials. Perhaps it is you who should stay on topic.
