Rio Ammunition is releasing new packaging for its made-in-Texas “Patriot Pack” of 100 shotgun shells that proudly displays the company's continued support for the NRA and the shooting sports.

Rio’s support for the NRA goes well beyond new packaging, as Rio will donate $1 to the NRA from the sale of every Patriot Pack sold through June 15, 2019. Rio has also teamed up with the NRA to offer an NRA membership discount of up to $40 to those members who sign up through a special URL printed on the Patriot Pack packaging.

“By helping to fund vital NRA programs and compelling our customers to sign up for an NRA membership,” Darrell Morrow, National Sales Director at Rio, said, “Rio is helping to ensure that the qualities of discipline, respect, good sportsmanship and loyalty, all key aspects of the shooting sports, are carried forward to the next generation of collectors, hunters and competitors.”

“We are grateful for Rio’s commitment to the Second Amendment,” said Todd Grable, Executive Director of Membership for the NRA. “It is critical to have partners who stand with all of us in protecting our Second Amendment rights and preserving America’s shooting sports heritage.”

The Patriot Pack contains 100 rounds of 12-gauge, 1-ounce, No. 7½ loads intended for wing and target shooting, perfect for dove seasons right around the corner.
