Last time I checked Canada was in North America. I think sometimes people get confused with made in the USA vs. made in America. So made in Canada is technically American made? Right?

To be fair Ron. I shot the stock plug for quite awhile with no problems with BH. If the headspace is adjusted, and the flash channel kept clean. It always fired. I had you do my BP for peace of mind.

I think CVA and Western came out with the BH BP for the average Joe who always have everything right. You can be a little sloppy with maintenance with the BH BO, and it still works. It also works with almost any primer.

Yes, but it's not in the United States. Which is what an American means when he says America.

I'll give you a B.

I had the same conversation with someone from South America. He wasn't going for not being from America.

Ah but!!! Is there an equivelant product made in the US... Since Hodgdon controls the powder market in the US, including IMR, and he he is totally against a smokeless powder being used in a Muzzleloader it has not happened. Hodgdon was offered the powder before General Dynamics of Canada got it.

So in this case you can not buy an American product that is the same class for more money of even less money.

Okay so I'm pretty much right is what your saying.

That's part of the problem now. Unless you're willing to research everything you buy. It's impossible to buy all American.

I understand no research is needed if I get a CVA. There's other things involved in this. If I got the same deal on a Knight? I'd be shooting a Knight.

Would you though? I thought you didn't like the fact they didn't actually make anything?
