Would the fact they have the Winchester brand of powders, also include manufacture of primers?  Or not?

They have made WW powders for many years now.

Have no clue who makes Winchester brand primers.

How would Hodgdon owning Winchester primer manufacturing change the current situation with primers? They make ammunition and ammunition components, not Magic Wands.

There’s a thought: a magic wand business.

Pat, I want you to sit down, take a couple slow breaths. Now read what I said and say "That's funny."

On the serious note, St Marks (General Dynamics) in Florida makes all the Winchester label ball powder.   I'm sure that the St Marks plant does not make primers.  But, I'd assume Win primers are not made by G.D. I believe primers are made by Olin (who owns the Winchester ammo production).

 

The use of Winchester trademark for powder was sold off to Hodgdon several years ago.   And they continue to have St Marks make the Winchester powder line.

 

Good luck, GJ
