Sounds like a good match. It's hard to keep up with all the trades and sales these days.
Perhaps RCBS will move to Kansas?

Remember, it's not how many guns you have. It's how many bullets you have.

I hope this foreign sale with Vista Outdoors falls through. Id like to not see foreign intervention in our ammo and reloading supplies.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

I am continually amazed at the firearms related companies who have sold to big corporations or to other firearms companies. Back in the 70’s and 80’s when I worked in the industry this was unheard of. Crazy.

Vista/Revelyst (Minnesota) is selling RCBS to Hodgdon located in Kansas. It's not a foreign sale.

Since the foreign sale was nowhere mentioned in this topic, without context how would one know you weren't thinking that RCBS sale was foreign?
Thanks for bringing into context where you were going.
