A Legacy of Performance

A large part of our history is built upon the development of smokeless powder, a crucial element in defining a cartridge’s performance.  The production of gunpowder is an art based on the passion for this sport; the study, rigor, and development of chemical formulas and the knowledge of precise techniques gave rise to a unique product that is the very essence of our company.

Since 1885, we have been producing laminated double-base gunpowders using traditional recipes that we have improved over the years. We use only the best raw materials available on the market and a production process that employs modern techniques and systems with old-world craftsmanship and skill. After more than one hundred years, our gunpowder represents a guarantee of success for all enthusiasts of this sport.

The particular chemical composition and experience are the guarantee of constancy and performance.  Even today, our powders tell our story, representing the true essence of Baschieri & Pellagri's heritage and innovation.  Our goal is to allow you to trust your ammunition and use it with passion.
