Was told today that ADI have their new factory due to come on line later this year. Apparently they will also be releasing a whole new range of "high performance powders". And the old powders might no longer be available once new factory is up and running. Any one able to confirm or verify ?
I'm not looking forward to having to start again on load development ??!! :omg:
I too hate load development. May just have to stock up on powder if they stop making the current options.Quote:

Me neither one of the most useful powders on the planet, I think the new powders are the faster stuff like AP50 AP70 as that was the factory that burnt down, hope so
What do load with that powder? Or what don't you load with it[emoji845]Quote:

2206H and 2208 are used so extensively I cant believe they would be so silly as to can them. From what I can read they are just re-naming some pistol and shotgun powders? or do you have a better link?
yeah, fingers crossed they don't mess with the top sellers in rifle powders. But it would be nice to see this clarified by ADI. The chap in Reloaders who told me the story seemed to have been told that it was a big revamp of the ADI range. And $$ invested into a whole new factory and equipment might mean they have decided to make changes .... or have to cos their new equipment might give different outcomes. Then the marketing guys get to spin the story .... so suddenly now we have "new & improved high performance bla bla woof woof" .... probably have anti melting additives to stop the plastic tips from catching fire ?? Oh damn, Hornady already milking that one. :wtfsmilie:
