Support Your Canadian Ammunition Manufacturers - NOW IS THE TIME!

We should encourage more companies to do like TNA did and include a "Made in Canada" filter for products on their websites.

Thanks for your guys support and actually taking the time to read this. Even if you are not sure where to get remanufactured ammunition, talk to your local gun store and ask them to stock Canadian remanufactured ammunition. They will know where to find it from reputable sources.

Brian,

Well said. I really hope all of you guys that make ammo in Canada can ramp up and get it on our shelves as this would be good for the Canadian industry as a whole.

Regards,

JR

What about SCORE? The company is based out of Manitoba and I think they manufacture ammo in MB too?

There’s also Champion - they’re based in QC and manufacture their own ammo I think?
 
IVI /GD (General Dynamics) does not do consumer sales, if there is a break in military production then they may operate on contract for a commercial entity such as Winchester. Very rarely do IVI things make it into the consumer markets, as we are typically willing to pay less then governments are. The only thing that you will get from GD is powder from Saint Marks Powder and that is through Hodgdon typically

X-Metal has no plans to load ammunition as of right now,they will not be added to the list.
Sterling Cross (I am awaiting a response from them)
 
Great message. It hits close to home, my parents have had to shut down their small business and lay off most of their staff. Fortunately most of the staff are retirement age and work there for fun and to feed their hobby but I can't imagine how other places feel knowing many of their employees need to work.

Now is definitely the time to support small Canadian owned businesses. Hopefully the good thing from all of this is we all think a bit more of where our stuff comes from and who we are supporting when we buy it.
 
Yes, Canadian companies need to be innovative, there are thousands of old and antique calibers that are virtually impossible to get, anywhere, and they are expensive, if a Canadian company included all these extinct caliber including all the rimfire cartridges they would do well and could sell them all over the world, especially in the U.S.
