[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 856648, member: 39764"] I'm having a Hodgon conundrum lately.... Looking over my powder inventory last night, I noticed that some Hodgon Powders are made in Australia (which is where I thought they were all made) and packaged in the United States, while others are made in the United States and package in the United States.... I wasn't aware that they (Hodgon) had any manufacturing facilities in Shawnee Mission, Kansas. I realized that Hodgon is part of ATK which owns other powder companies (IMR and I believe Allant) as well as RCBS and Federal Cartridge among others. I wonder if the Hodgon Powder that are made here in this country are actually another manufacturers powder or if they are made in another manufacturers facility and packaged as Hodgon Powder? Curious minds want to know and I'm starting to wonder about subsittution of one for another depending on availability..... To distill it a bit further, is Hodgon actually IMR or Allant in a different jug?, or vice versa....... Example, Lil Gun, Retumbo and H335 are made in America whereas, H1000, Varget and H322 are made in Oz, packaged here and I presume come in, in super sacks and get 'bottled' here, probably in some powder munitions plant.....
