Fiocchi America Moved into TKG’s Brands, Hevi Shifting from Oregon to Missouri<\/a><\/p>\n

News came this week that\u00a0Fiocchi’s\u00a0<\/strong><\/a>U.S. arm will be moving under the same umbrella of\u00a0ammo<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0brands maintained by the Kinetic Group.<\/p>\n

Formerly part of Vista Outdoor, last year’s\u00a0purchase<\/a>\u00a0of several classic American ammunition brands, including CCI, Federal, Hevi, Remington, and Speer by the Czechoslovak Group, became TKG. As the Czechoslovak Group \u2013\u00a0which has held a majority stake in Fiocchi since 2022 and quietly\u00a0became\u00a0<\/a>the 100-percent owner of that ammo company in April \u2013\u00a0the writing was on the wall that its U.S. operations would be consolidated with TKG.<\/p>\n

“We\u2019re excited to have Fiocchi of America officially join of our group of world-leading ammunition brands,” said Jason Vanderbrink, Chairman and CEO of TKG.<\/p>\n

As part of the shift, Fiocchi America’s Ozark, Missouri, shotshell plant will become “a center of excellence for shotshell products,” and Hevi will move its operations from Oregon to Missouri. Fiocchi is also building a\u00a0$42 million<\/a>\u00a0lead-free primer plant in Arkansas.<\/p>\n

“Ozark is just outside of Springfield, Missouri, a fantastic location for ammunition manufacturing, the outdoors, conservation, and support of the Second Amendment. HEVI-Shot will have a great new home here and will continue its 25-year legacy of loading the best steel, tungsten, and bismuth shot for waterfowl and upland hunters,” said Vanderbrink.<\/p>\n

Hevi was formed in Oregon in 2000 by a group of hunters frustrated by the performance of steel shot and eager to create better non-toxic loads.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
