Ok so I’ve been buying ramshot powder for the past two months, stocking up.
Happened to notice that the containers they use are the same ones accurate powder uses, right down to the red cap. What gives? Does it all come from the place just relabel?

They are brand names and both are owned by Western Powders.   Western Powders packages the powders for sale.

Hodgdon bought Western out.  They are the distributor of Accurate and Ramshot powders now, and have retained the same bottles.

Ramshot hasn't said, but Accurate announced they were switching their Belgian made powders to US made.

They never changed their load data, but from my results, the US made versions of the former Belgian powders are slightly slower, so I guess they figured their load data was safe with them.

The difference is very, very small, but it seems always to slow side, at least with two of them.

I don't know if Ramshot's Belgian-made powders will switch to being US made.

Hodgdon may downsize the number of powders now though.
