Revelyst Announces Sale of RCBS
The company has sold the longtime reloading brand to Hodgdon Powder.
RCBS is a leading manufacturer of ammunition reloading equipment for hunters, competition shooters and sporting enthusiasts. Through this transaction, Revelyst found the right home for RCBS with Hodgdon, a market leader in American manufacturing, smokeless powder, clean black powder substitute and now reloading equipment.
“At Revelyst, each and every day we honor the makers behind our brands and products — from the innovations they create to the cultures they build,” said
Revelyst received interest from multiple parties looking to acquire RCBS, whose strong culture, 80-year history, value proposition in the market and alignment with the existing Hodgdon portfolio makes this transaction the best path forward for the brand.
“As part of Hodgdon, RCBS is positioned for growth with a company whose deep history in ammunition components, domestic manufacturing, and reputation with core shooting sports enthusiasts will help RCBS flourish,” said
The sale is effective immediately. The teams are excited to transition the business and continue to serve valued customers for years to come.
