Women waterfowl hunters have typically been pushed toward using youth-model shotguns, trimming stocks to fit or simply dealing with what was available—but no longer. Syren is the first brand in the industry to design and produce shotguns exclusively for women. The company’s 12-gauge, semi-automatic XLR5 Waterfowler is engineered to meet their needs, most notably in stock design and recoil reduction. Features include a female-friendly composite stock, Pulse Piston operating system, magazine cutoff switch and Realtree Max-5 finish at an MSRP of $1,795. Learn more about the blind-ready Syren XLR5 Waterfowler in this video.

But the offspring of that cartridge—as well as those cartridges which were “highly inspired” by the .404 Jeffery—have gotten much more of the spotlight than the .404 ever did.
