The Kinetic Group (TKG) has officially added Fiocchi of America—and exclusive rights to Baschieri & Pellagri (B&P) in the United States—to its lineup of top ammunition brands. Some of America’s premier ammunition brands were already cornerstones of TKG, including CCI, Federal, HEVI-Shot, Remington and Speer.
Fiocchi of America will consolidate its operation in the heart of America just outside of Springfield, Mo. TKG will also move its HEVI-Shot operation from its current location in Sweet Home, Ore., to Ozark, Mo., beginning this summer.
“We’re excited to have Fiocchi of America officially join of our group of world-leading ammunition brands. The Ozark, Missouri facility, where Fiocchi shotshells are currently loaded, will become a center-of-excellence for shotshell products,” according to Jason Vanderbrink, chairman and CEO of TKG. “Ozark is just outside of Springfield, Missouri, a fantastic location for ammunition manufacturing, the outdoors, conservation and support of the Second Amendment. HEVI-Shot will have a great new home here and will continue its 25-year legacy of loading the best steel, tungsten and bismuth shot for waterfowl and upland hunters.”
HEVI-Shot will begin moving immediately and the company expects to have the operation fully migrated to Ozark by the end of 2025. “The community of Sweet Home, Oregon, is where HEVI-Shot was born in 2000. We want to thank them for being an excellent location for one of our best brands,” according to Vanderbrink. “HEVI-Shot products will be made to the same exacting specifications as hunters have come to know and trust. There will be no difference in look, feel and quality.”
Czechoslovak Group (CSG) acquired a majority share of Fiocchi Munizioni in late 2022. It secured 100 percent ownership of the Fiocchi Group—including Fiocchi of America—in April 2025, roughly five months after it purchased TKG.
