"ADI Powders return to full production

13 January 2015

For those of you affected by the disruption in manufacture of flake powders, it will no doubt come as welcome news that ADI is once again in full production of AS30N, AP50N, AS50N, AP70N and AP100.

It may take a while for us and our distributor to get AP70N to every corner of Australia, so we ask that you continue to be patient if your gunshop does not immediately receive supply. Please be assured that we are producing large volumes of powder, and that any difficulty you may have getting hold of any of our powers at the moment is most likely due to the challenges associated with physically moving powder around Australia.

Thank you for your loyalty to our proudly Australian made products during this period."

Thats Hodgdon Powders in the US market..Clays is AS30, International is AS50 and Universal is AP70.

How do we convince them to make AP30 again?

[David M]

If you knew the early history of AP30 then AP30n you would not want it.

Suspected detonation with light loads damaged a number of guns, although never proven
ADI added a stabilizer to make AP30n and after some more incidents dropped it.

AS30n is a little slower (bigger flake) but still very fast and OK for .32 SW long.
