RCBS buy out rumor?
Some guy at the gun show yesterday said RCBS has been bought out by Blount. Expect the price of RCBS equipment to go up 30% soon. What have you heard?

What planet have you been on?

Blount has owned RCBS for ages! And on December 10th of last year Blount sold ALL their sporting goods divisions to Alliant Techsystems, Inc.

Let me guess. He was trying to sell RCBS stuff. "Buy it now, while I can still sell it at my inflated gun sh... uh, I mean, at these low,low prices. Next week it's gonna cost more. Get it while you can!"
