Federal Premium has announced the addition of a new load to its Gold Medal shotshell lineup. For 2017, the company will roll out Gold Medal Grand.

Federal's Gold Medal line has long been a favorite choice for competitive trap, skeet and sporting clays shooters. The new Gold Medal Grand, offered in 10 different loads, is designed to offer less felt recoil, more reliable ignition, improved shot hardness and simpler reloadability.

Features:

• Two-piece wad utilizes SoftCell technology to decrease perceived recoil and produce more uniform patterns than one-piece designs
• Rigid PrimerLock head improves primer sensitivity, ensuring proper ignition in the event of a light hit
• Lead shot is engineered for the optimum blend of hardness and density for even patterns and maximum downrange power
• Integral base wad maximizes reloadability
