Purely speculation on my part, but ammunition sales are through the roof over the last 8 years and while there has to be some sort of ceiling, I can't see one yet. This plant may be like others undergoing this sort of demand boom and have a phase 2 already laid out before the building goes operational. It may very well end up being much more than 400 full time jobs.
The average salary of an ammunition is about $16.00 per hour. that would imply a payroll of $256,000 per week into the economy of the UKV. A million dollars a month is a big deal for those UKV communities that has lost so very much of late.
