Anybody know who was making Barnes brass before the Remington takeover?

I have a bunch of once fired .30-06 and the Barnes is the second heaviest (FL sized, deprimed and tumbled) on my digital scale behind Nosler/Norma, and well ahead of R-P, Win. and Fed.

Just curious, seems like good stuff.
 
FGI (Freedom Group) owns it, and the brass is manufactured in the same plant as Remington stamped brass, unless something changed in the last 6 months or so.
 
The stuff I have I bought new, as loaded ammunition, about four years ago, when I believe Barnes was still and independent company. I know Remington (Freedom Group) owns them now so I assume inew manufacture is R-P brass. Just curious who was contracted to manufacture it before the buy-out.
