I heard a rumor yesterday that Barnes was purchased by Winchester or possibly Remington and that Alliant Tech and Federal are etremely pissed as federal has developed most of the load data for Barnes. I guess Barnes didnt even let Alliant Tech know they were for sale and allow them to make an offer or bid. Has anyone else heard this.

The Freedom Group has purchased certain assets of Barnes Bullets. The deal was closed on December 31, 2009. Barnes Bullets will continue day-to-day operations at their Mona, Utah-based location under the guidance of company founder, Randy Brooks. For those not familiar with who The Freedom Group is, it is an organization made up of a family of … See Morecompanies including Remington, Bushmaster, DPMS, Marlin, H&R, New England Firearms, LC Smith, Parker Gun, EOTAC clothing, Advanced Armament Corporation, Dakota Arms and INTC.
There will be no changes within the company or quality of Barnes’ products. Barnes Bullets has retained all of its employees and will continue to make PREMIUM hunting, military, and law enforcement bullets.
looks to be the real deal…..I really hope they don’t a thing in regards to their product. I wonder why they felt like they had to sell???? and why ‘The Freedom Group’?
I couldn’t figure out how to post that article
Thanks Stan
