What Are The Major Driving Forces Influencing The Rifle Powder Market Landscape?
The anticipated expansion of the rifle powder market is likely to be fueled by an increased participation in shooting sports. These recreational or competitive sports, which aim for accuracy, precision, and speed, involve the use of firearms such as rifles. The surge in participation is influenced by an enhanced visibility in the media, the broadening of safety and training programs, plus an increased interest from young people and women. Rifle powder, primarily used as propellant in rifle cartridges, is essential for attaining accuracy, consistency, and appropriate results in shooting sports. A fitting powder assures the best burn rate and pressure, directly affecting bullet stability and accuracy. For example, data from January 2024 from the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF), a U.S based trade association, revealed that 17% of adults involved in shooting sports in 2022 were new to the scene, which indicates a rising interest and participation. Therefore, as the number of participants in shooting sports increases, so does growth in the rifle powder market.
