I know Pedersoli builds some of them, but not all.  Much like the "Kenmore" brand of refrigerators contracts are awarded on price and quality.  These contracts are opened for bid on a regular basis, so even if we know who builds what today, three years from now it may be very different.

 Investarm made/makes the Cabela's "Hawken".
They sell the same rifle under their name also.

I dont know if the Investarms Hawken parts are interchangeable with the Lymans but Investarms is the same company that makes the Lyman guns.
