DR Wads out of business
 

If you are a fan of Down Range wads and you see some for sale you should grab them. It is reported the company has ceased operations as of 12/31/25.

Thanks for the heads up. I bought 2000 DR-16's. My guess is Precision or Ballistics will buy the mold. But I'm set for a very long time.

Still have about a thousand DR 16s, thats a damn shame.

Too bad. I love their products.

Too bad.

Wow. That is certainly a surprise. Less options is never a good thing.

Recobs had none but Precision has, according to Josh, many in stock as of yesterday.

I hope! There is a lot of load data available for their wads and I'd hate to see more load data become irrelevant due to discontinued components.

I believe they are in the process of selling the molds to Claybuster

I sure hope so. Hate to see them fall by the wayside.

For you 16 ga lovers there is really only one unique wad that you should hope Claybuster continues if they are buying the molds. That's the DR16. Other than that specific wad, Claybuster will have what wad you will need.
