When I heard that Goex was going to stop making Cartridge grade BP, I contacted my source at Goex to confirm it. Yes it's true---along with some of the Express grades and Cowboy powders. Their were fears that when Hogdon's acquired Goex they would change formula's, drop production,generally screw up the Goex BP. This follows on the heels of 22% price increase over the last year or so. Incidentally my distributor was not notified about dropping some grades. I was told some time back that 90% of Goex BP went to Military and most of the rest was used by reenactors, so sporting shooters are a very small consideration. This probably is one of the reasons Swiss is so popular with sporting shooters as that is who they make powder for. Goex has demonstrated the ability to make as good of powder as Swiss but not the desire. When my supply of Goex runs out, my money will go to the Swiss.
