    Today, on GunTuber 'Guns & Gagets', showed a letter from Alliant stating that all shipments for civilian use will be stopped, due to shortages.
    All orders not shipped already will be canceled.
    Alliant, who used to be owned by Vista, now is been sold to CSG for 1.9 Billion!
    The original Vista will now only own sporting goods type companies.
    The split sold all ammo related lines to the Czech arms maker.
    CSG is owned by one man, who made his billions refitting/rebuilding Ukrainian tanks.

    This is how pedo Joe is attacking our 2nd Amendment, sending billions to them for the war effort.
    That money is going the CSG, who then using it to starve our need for ammo.

    This side of Vista also owned Federal, and CCI.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't CZ owned by the same guy?
    And CZ has bought up Colt, Dan Wesson, and others, right?
    And Vista also owned Remington ammo...

    It won't just be Alliant powders; it will be ALL powder, and ammo will increase significantly in price. This was all laid out during the SHOT Show. China, which used to provide 35% of the nitrocellulose used to make powder, has stopped exporting it to the US and NATO countries. Russia has greatly increased their importation of nitrocellulose, in order to replenish the munitions they're burning through in Ukraine. Contracts for military munitions here in the US have increased significantly (got to replace the stuff that Potato Joe has been giving away), and those contracts have priority over everything else. Reloaders are so far down the list of priorities, that we essentially don't even count.

    Isn't it pretty to think so.

    All Alliant powders just evaporated from the shelfs around here. The news dropped about nitrocellulose shortages, and that was it. It appears double base power is gone for a while. Single base powers should still be around, but....
