KynochUSA is not, as far as I can gather the official outlet for Kynoch in the USA, the only appointed distributor who takes supplies from Kynamco is Conneticut Shotgun Manufacturing (Galazans ??) as to where Kynoch USA get there Kynoch ammo I do not know, nor when I spoke to Sue Little some weeks back, did she. I guess however as long as it is recent manufacture and the price is good, that is what counts.

Wolfgang Romey is still manufacturing ammunition in Germany, he does not have a website as his outfit is more analagous to that of a hand-loading industry rather than mass production, which to a degree can be said of Kynamco as much of their big game ammunition is also hand assembled, only the higher vloume output cartridges such as .303 are assembled on semi-automated machinery.

Kynamco's output of sporting cartridges is comparatively modest to its total cartridge out per- se. David told me that they make around 20,000 rounds a year of ALL sporting calibres the bulk of their output being confined to industrial cartridges for the electrical and oil pipleine industries, blank cartridges for cowboy re-enactors and military applications and cattle killer cartridges.

I do not know how many cartridges Romey makes anually, he still supplies ammunition for Westley Richards which by a happy coincidence bears his WR headstamp. The most recent cartridges introduced by Holland and Holland the .400 and .465 Belted also appear to have been developed and made by Herr Romey.
