Non-American die makers?

[u/Boetie83]

Are all dies made in the US?
I’m in the market for several die sets and would rather get something made elsewhere but I don’t know of any dies made outside of the US?

Frankford Arsenal I believe are all made in China... But I wouldn't recommend them.

I get not wanting to but US made stuff but really if you're looking into reloading realize majority of the the components are made in the US as well.

Pretty sure all the Hodgdon powders are made in the US, majority of the primers, most projectiles.

Edit: actually surprised a lot of powders are Australian or Canadian

Kind of SOL to avoid the US in this hobby sadly.

[u/514Kappa → u/LongRoadNorth]

Vihtavuori, Lapua, Ginex, Sellier & Bellot, Fiochi, Magtech to list some powders, ogives, cases (brass) and primers that are not made in the us.

PPU makes decent brass and bullets too.

Ya, find me VV in stock in Canada

That said, after posting this I googled it. Actually depends which powder as Hodgdon is just the distributor. H4350 and varget are both from Australia apparently.

Try Tesro to only list one because it would be too long to post all suppliers that have it in stock. Never had issue finding VV in Canada.

[u/LongRoadNorth → u/514Kappa]

I have.

No one currently has n555 in stock

[u/514Kappa → u/LongRoadNorth]

Hopefully you will be first to read this, R@ngeSports as it in stock

[u/LongRoadNorth → u/514Kappa]

You mean rangeview? N555 isn't in stock

[u/514Kappa → u/LongRoadNorth]

No, I mean Rangesports

[u/LongRoadNorth → u/514Kappa]

Never heard of

[u/Creative-Ad9092 → u/LongRoadNorth]

Hirsch Precision

[u/Ben-jams → u/514Kappa]

Unise Ginex those Bosnian primers that like to spark like another Balkan conflict baby!

[u/alexorange178 → u/514Kappa]

ogives？

[u/LumberjackCDN → u/LongRoadNorth]

Actually theyre just packaged in the states most of the popular ones are products of canada or austrailia

[u/Boetie83 → u/LongRoadNorth]

Thanks for the reply I appreciate it.
I thought Hodgdon was made in Australia and IMR in Canada? I’ve got plenty of bullets and powder on the shelf. Just looking for dies at the moment. If I wanted new bullets there are many European options available.

[u/514Kappa → u/Boetie83]

Imr and Accurate manufacture powder in Canada

Edit : typo

[u/Boetie83 → u/514Kappa]

Didn’t know Accurate too, that’s good to know thank you.

[u/LongRoadNorth → u/Boetie83]

Depends which one. I just googled and didn't realize a lot of them are Australian or Canadian.

But most of the ball powder is US

[u/Boetie83 → u/LongRoadNorth]

I use Goldbond for my balls 😂
