They are working the terms of their sellout to a foreign company/investor.

They don’t need to sell to the American Continent. Plenty of shooters on all the others.

Hate to hear it. Doesn’t exactly bode well for the industry.
I wasn’t planning on buying any more RL-16 at $70.00/lb., but I still hate to hear it.

Had this convo at the LGS today. If you aren’t wealthy, start shooting Rimfire.

Worldwide shortage of nitrocellulose? Are powders about to take a major hit?

They posted this a week or so ago. Unlikely to ever see RL powders for a LONG time.

Major price increase in powders by Hodgdon are likely. Estimated 10%

Vihtavouri is also increasing prices on June 1, 2024 by 10%, as well.

“Due to the worldwide shortage of nitrocellulose, the Vista Outdoor supply agreement for the sale of Alliant Powder canisters has been suspended for an unknown period. At this time, we have no timeline for the fulfillment and will be canceling outstanding Alliant orders in our system. Representatives will provide updates and coordinate new orders based on availability.”
