IMR powders
IMR has been sold to Hodgdon a while ago, ok.

There are still IMR powders for sale, even here in Germany.

But is production continued, and if so, what's the new name of the product ?

SHAWNEE MISSION, KS. - Hodgdon Powder Company announces the asset purchase of IMR Powder Company Inc.

IMR has been the mainstay of numerous handloaders for many years. The IMR brand product names remain and are now supplied by Hodgdon. �IMR is manufactured in the same plant with exacting performance criteria and quality assurance standards that Hodgdon users have come to expect,� said Tom Shepherd, President of Hodgdon.

Hodgdon has no plans to consolidate the lines from either company. We feel that they both have unique (excuse the wording) features and advantages. We will continue to supply the IMR products unchanged from their current manufacturing plant. We look forward to doing more aggressive marketing and updating some of the IMR data etc. We hope that you will continue to use our products and appreciate the business that you have given us in the past.

Thank you for the answer.



As far as I know, IMR failed to apply for the certificates required (since several years) to distribute powders in Germany/Europe thus IMR powders sold here are from older stocks.





"doing more aggressive marketing" will include caring for these certificates - is that corect ?
