Lower weight makes them viable for military use
But they need to be lower cost to be viable for commercial use
If I take 100 rounds to the range it doesn't matter if I can shave 1 pound off the total weight of my bag. But shaving $10 off the cost of the rounds would get my attention
In the field I don't care if they cost MORE. Just make them lighter.
Cheaper AND lighter? They will replace brass entirely within 5 years
Even if it’s cheaper and lighter it would never fully replace brass. Polymer isn’t reloadable, brass is. Reloaders can make ammo much more accurate than what is commercially available and it’s tailored to their gun.
