A Hallowed Tradition For Generations of Americans  

Made the Same Way in the USA For More Than 150 Years

 

The Choice For History and Accuracy

In a powder mill in the piney woods of north Louisiana, workers carry on the tradition of generations of American black powder makers, grinding out granules of black powder at the GOEX Black Powder Plant. It is a tradition that GOEX proudly assumed from one of America's pioneer black powder producers, E.I. Dupont. And just as its predecessor was once the largest powder producer in America, GOEX stands proud today to carry on the tradition as North America's only producer of black powder. The mill's workers, several of them third-generation powder hands, bring the expertise and experience of their fathers and grandfathers to the process.

 

  Black powder earned a place in history as the powder that provided food and security to keep frontier settlers alive and later for its vital role in defense of freedom in two World Wars and the conflicts in Korea and Vietnam. The same superior formulation that catapulted DuPont to the pinnacle of powder production in 1810 and supplied military might for the USA is the basis for the GOEX powders preferred by black powder sports shooters and industry users today.   Those who love history and black powder shooting rely on the quality and tradition of GOEX shooting powders. The most trusted name in black powder continues to produce high quality black powder to the most rigorous and precise specifications for hunters, competition shooters and re-enactors, as well as fireworks and safety fuse makers, specialty manufacturers, the mining industry and the military. The tradition continues with an extended line of powder products to meet the modern-day needs of black powder sports shooters and industry.
