I used to burn up lots of Hercules 2400 powder in a .44 mag and bought it by the five pound can.

Used a lot of Unique in autos.

I always liked their powders.

Yes, it's good stuff. I'm hearing now that Winchester/Olin has licensed their powder sales to Hodgdon Inc.

So now Hodgdon sells their own brand, IMR and now Winchester powders.

They have sold Surplus and newly manufactured IMR (Dupont) type powders for years and ball powder equivalents of the Winchester powders so it's basically a lot of the same powders under different names now.

Interesting move from a marketing standpoint.


BTW- I see IthacaGun is back in business also.


Really seeing a lot of musical chairs in this industry as of late.
