Hope RCBS customer service isn't affected. Me too. My recently purchased Rebel ain't all that and a bag of chips, and my CM Lite crapped out a month ago. Oh well, I guess I'll get to ask about the new ownership.

I'm OK as long as the decapping rod in the dies is threaded. Horn dies suck You can get an upgraded threaded decapping rod from Hornady.

Bye bye Vista Outdoors!
👍😎👏 The thought crossed my mind that they might be piecing it out.

PV better owners for the American consumer over the Czechs IMO.
And I too hope their excellent customer service remains.
Could be worse.

Isn't amazing how wars shape the industries.Vista gets bought out by the Czech company who is making billions supplying arms and ammunition from the war in Ukraine.Most of those billions comes from US government contracts that will take years to fill.All this money they are making (from "us",the government operates off of "our money",the US taxpayers) is allowing them to purchase other ammo manufacturing companies.They are creating monopiles,controlling the ammunition supplies.You need powder for ammunition,this is also how Hodgdon is making the money to buyout other powder and other related companies.They too have created a monopoly in the powder industry.Wars are a money making business in many ways.Just think about all the good things that all that money could do for the good of our Country and we probably wouldn't be nearing 35 trillion in debt either. https://www.usdebtclock.org/

Got spend that money they're making off of $60/pound powder on something. At least their price increases led me to try VV powders. I'm liking vv pistol powders I just wish they wouldn't have discontinued n105.

I think I’ve got 3 sets of RCBS dies running around here and really like all of them EXCEPT my .223 seater. Pretty sure I need a new/different seater stem.
I think I’ve had my Rock Chucker (and all the kit items) since 2000.
I do wish RCBS well and hope Hogdon doesn’t muck it up.

Bb Buy $50 worth of their powder and you get a FREE 10 cent sticker. What a joke. https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/19423576/free#Post19423576

Hornady has announced that RCBS now offers both .223 and .308 Winchester dies so sportsman can choose which cartridge best suits their needs! Enjoy!
