The more mfgrs, the better. I heard Tom say that there are only 2 plants making it now, at full capacity. It’s more specialized than centerfire ammo, I understand.

Interesting. Little Pflugerville is getting an ammo plant.

Hopefully, they’ll have a factory outlet store.

I thought there were three — Remington, Federal and Winchester?

ATK owns Federal, Olin owns Winchester, Freedom Group owns Remington. Hornady Mfg is privately-owned.

That’s 4 mfgrs doing ammo. (Disclosure: I have stock in ATK and Olin)

Maybe I misunderstood, but I’m pretty sure Tom said only 2 plants remain as .22cal mfgrs.
