About

smokin-gunWestern Powders, Inc. has been one of North America’s leading distributors of gun powders since 1972. Located in Miles City, Montana, our current operations evolved from our distribution of Dupont IMR Powders in the 1970s. Our business has grown significantly since that time and we now distribute powder for every major brand of firearm propellants.

Having developed a highly efficient distribution network for gun powders, we decided to develop and market our own brand of propellants in 1998 under the “Ramshot” name. To further broaden our operations, we purchased “Accurate Arms” in 2005 and Montana X-Treme Gun Cleaning Products in 2006. Our most recent brand introduction was Blackhorn 209 Muzzleloading Propellant, which has revolutionized the muzzleloading industry since its introduction in 2008.

Every product we develop under the Western Powders name meets our highest standards for performance and reliability. We proudly support the freedom to bear arms and strive to make hunting and recreational shooting more enjoyable for every one of our customers.
