Remington Returns: The Revival Of An Ammunition Giant

Remington Ammunition filed for bankruptcy in July 2020, amid one of the hottest markets for ammunition makers in recent memory. The bankruptcy filing presaged the ultimate collapse of Remington Outdoor in September of that same year, and the assets of that conglomerate were auctioned off to the highest bidders. Ultimately, Vista Outdoor, owner of Federal Ammunition, CCI and Speer, purchased the assets of Remington Ammunition and got to work returning the plant to its former glory. Watch the American Rifleman Television segment above to learn about Remington's redemption.
"This is one of the largest ammunition manufacturing plants in the world. It's Remington Ammunition in Lonoke, Ark.," said Mark Keefe, NRA Publications editorial director. "It was set up in 1969 by DuPont, who owned Remington at the time. They do it all here. Cases, bullets, centerfire rifle, centerfire pistol, rimfire and shotshell. This is really one of the great manufacturing successes in the United States. Up until 2020. Bad leadership [and] bad financial decisions resulted in the employees here getting a notice saying, 'Company's bankrupt, we're going to be sold, we don't know if you're going to have a job.' At that point, Vista Outdoor stepped in and bought this plant. They're ammo people. That's all they do. And this is the story of Remington reloaded."
The Remington Ammunition plant was constructed in 1969, and over the course of several years, machinery, materials and manpower shifted from the company's original facility in Bridgeport, Conn., to the new building in Lonoke, Ark. DuPont, the owners of Remington Ammunition during the shift to Arkansas, sold the company to an investment group, RACI Acquisitions, and changes came to the facility. In 2007, the company was purchased by Cerberus Capital Management, and in 2010, it became part of the Freedom Group of companies. After a 2018 bankruptcy filing, the company continued to struggle, and the collapse of Remington Outdoor Company in 2020 provided an opportunity for its acquisition by Vista.
"We bought Remington because it is literally once in a generation that you might have this opportunity to buy such an iconic brand," said Jason Vanderbrink, president of ammunition, Vista Outdoor. "I mean, [a] 205-year-old American manufacturing ammunition business, that is so complementary to Federal, CCI and Speer. We viewed this acquisition as a must-have acquisition."
Once Vista Outdoor took over management of Remington Ammunition, it began by bringing back furloughed workers. Supply shortages eased with Vista's supply network, and manufacturing lines roared to life once again.
"For the first time, it feels like we work for people, from our direct management all the way to the top, that understand ammunition, that want to make ammunition and want to make good ammunition," said Jimmy Lawrence, ballistics engineer, Remington Ammunition. "Ultimately, any business is in the industry to make money, but that should be, in my opinion, second to product safety, product innovation and product quality. I believe we're now in the hands of a company that genuinely believes ammo should be good ammo or it shouldn't be on the shelf."
Over the first 18 months of Vista's ownership of Remington Ammunition, the facility added more than 1,500 new employees. The ammunition giant announced that, at that time, it had increased centerfire-handgun ammunition production more than 40 percent, while shotshell production increased 15 percent. Additionally, the company added "millions" of new primers to the market.
"We know what the capacity is, we know where we're at today. Every day gets better, so every day, we make more ammunition than the previous day," Vanderbrink said. "But when we first turned the lights on, there wasn't much ammo being made. When the shift was over and the lights went off, it was sad to see. I can tell you that Big Green is roaring. The workforce is behind us, they're behind us 100 percent. The state's behind us. The Vista umbrella, right now, is really excited for things to come out of Lonoke, Ark."

They also have said they aren't able to get their raw materials. very well, in their desired quantities, to make the primers, as their is Still a "Supply Chain" materials shipping issue that has plagued the USA for the last 2 years sadly.

Remington is a big part of who I am as a hunter. From my dad to me Remington is a decades old staple in my life.

[@ablemagawitch]

Maybe just maybe they start churning out their own damn calibers like 35 Remington..... Remington shut downing their hunting caliber production was like the start of WW2 when they quit making all the older ammunition, when WW2 ended, they didn't bring back any of the older ammunition. I aware there were very limited civilian sales due to wartime rationing and production being mobilized. I can't count all the rimfire calibers, that are firearms that have a box ammo more expensive the gun, where each shot fired is one robbed from every future generation to have that chance. Remington just abandoned their gun owners and people that bought into Remington calibers, back in the 1940's. Hopefully this restarting the plant will not be in the same fate for less popular guns and calibers that people use and have used for decades.

FYI the 1911 was designed around a ROUND bullet for reliable feeding. ALSO Everyone knows there are not enough primers being made. That machine should be running 24/7. Man it with Double Overtime workers if need be.

After using this ammo every year since age 10, I am glad to hear that Remington will continue going. I hope they are around forever

[@davidwarren3433]

I'm glad to know Remmington is getting back on track and keeping the business all about Remmington USA.

[@ron.v]

What a wonderful story. I love to hear it when skilled crafts persons can come back to work and begin making a brand that's stood historically for exceptional quality.

[@brenttesterman3171]

Thank you God.

[@tnridges995]

Thank you! This kind of communication directed to the consumer is what encourages me to seek out Remington Brand ammo! Keep it coming !

[@razony]

Woo-Hoo. Great to hear for Lonoke and Arkansas. 💜

[@southtexasprepper1837]

I'm so glad that Remington has survived. The name "Remington" has been long associated with genuine workmanship in regards to Ammunition Manufacturing. ❤

[@willey88]

Welcome back!

[@shawndean8358]

About time but it doesn't matter until it starts showing up on the shelf at reasonable prices , all of this off the chain prices for ammo to gouge the consumer , prices have doubled or more , greed will be the downfall of humanity .

[@kennethmcdonald5278]

I agree.

[@kennethmcdonald5278]

Pas the cost to the gov. Pass the savings to the civ. Market.does not matter , either way , we the taxpayers are paying for it , hey Ukraine , you're welcome , how about a reach around?

[@steveb6103]

I would have to agree about the price. But the middleman could be the greedy one's!

[@dougvuillemot8670]

When your gov starts war all over the world. Plus does everything to attack the gun man. This is what you get. If you think the prices are going back down. Share your pharmaceutical drugs.

[@s0nnyburnett]

everything is more expensive, ammo prices are lower now than they were a year ago for common calibers. Inflation is a bitch, hope your enjoyed that stimulus check because it cost you over 10x more in the long run.

[@earlparker1800]

I have always been a Remington fan and I know it's a lifertime move now. Thank you for your reliability and your ability to make the best ammo in America ! 🇺🇸🤜🤛🇺🇦

Good to see Remington getting back in its feet. I’ve had a bad experience with Remington Ammo recently and it’ll be a while before I have the trust to buy more. Having said that, being in Australia, I don’t know if my ammo was pre or post bankruptcy stock. My issue was with 180gr 300 win mag ammo. I had cases split open at the neck in 11 out of the 20 rounds.

[@richardsheldon3909]

Thank you for a very refreshing success story to bring a icon organization back to life. I was an avid trap shooter in my younger used and I shot thousands of Remington shotgun shells. Keep up the good work and keep pumping out that ammo.

[@flaganpetska6179]

I hope this goes well. I dont shoot much remington ammo, but i am hopeful that this eases the load on other premium manufacturers and brings overall availability up

[@HarryStone]

A great story for Remington and a very well produced video.

[@keithdaniels5918]

You're looking at Americans ....doing what Americans do. Support these people... BUY AMERICAN !! Love you guys !

[@1945tigers]

[@alwaysrockn2009]

Great video. Glad to hear of the come back of quality within Remington.

[@bearwill4737]

Always a Remington man through & through, Thank You for Keeping Part of The American Spirit Alive & Kicking.

[@adrpals2324]

I'm an American that likes to go the range with good ammo. You guys produce quality ammo, thank you.

[@thethingthatdoesnotsleep2982]

I’ve tried multiple other brand ammo in my 700 30-06 and honestly Remington brand ammo has been the most consistent grouping and feeding that I’ve had. It’s a little tough to find the 165s but I snag every box I come across. Glad to see the company making a comeback. Keep up the good work ladies and gentlemen

[@ShotGunner5609]

I'll be happy to see more ammo on the market. But i also hope they come out swinging and start making some of these calibers that are about to explode in popularity. 5.7x28, 5.45x39, all the 6.5 cartridges. Glad to see more stateside manufacturing happening again!

[@bullgravy6906]

New stuff? It’s all I see on the shelves any more. Bring back the oldies like 3030 and 4570 (not those Hornady short cases, though I shoot those too), 35 Rem, 35 whelen….oh nevermind, make it all and make a ton!

[@eclipsegst9419]

I could go for some locally made 6.5x55 for my Mauser

[@leepatton1180]

Thank you I'm glad to see 22 ammo back on the store shelves I love remington and I love America 🇺🇸 ❤

[@frankedgar6694]

I usually by a competitor but got a box of 200 rounds of 9mm Remington after seeing this video. It took me about 50 rounds of Remington vs Winchester to decide that my two Smotn & Wessons both shoot more accurately when shooting Remington. You folks are now my ammo supplier.

[@MrChevelle83]

Im glad to see Remington is back to making good ammo again, it appears to be setting up for success. If ammo ever comes down to a more affordable price id definitely practice a lot more than I do now. $200 in various calibers aint nothing to run through in no time! Even an afternoon busting clays is expensive.

[@williamsporing1500]

Even .22’s are almost a dime a round!

[@1jbunceiii]

love it!

[@tkarlmann]

Really encouraging at so many levels to see a tried & true brand such as Remington come back to life as an _AMERICAN_ Manufacturing Company! Thank you, wholeheartedly, for this video!!!!

[@marlinpruett8343]

I am 80 and Remington has been part of my life,,,My Dad bought me a 22 Remington when I was 11 years old and I still have it to day Remington is Number one If I had nickel for ever Remington 22 I shot I would be a billion air
