“Tag: New Ammo”

For 2020, Browning introduces its new Wicked Wing waterfowl ammo. Building on the success of the Browning BXD Waterfowl line, the company has retained the BXD wad system for the Wicked Wing line, and the new shotshells feature a proprietary round steel shot, which is corrosion resistant for optimum performance.

The Hornady .300 PRC is part of a paradigm shift in centerfire-cartridge design, one brought about by an increasingly improved understanding of internal and external ballistics, and the use of Doppler radar. As a .30-caliber magnum it is not only capable of killing big game, but also other .30-caliber magnums.

Federal has combined the power of two of its newest technologies to create a shotshell option that changes the nature of self-defense. The new Force X2 Shorty shells measure just 1¾ inches but hold a payload of six 00 segmenting buckshot engineered to split into two equal pieces on impact.

Federal combined a host of features in its new Terminal Ascent bullet to deliver balanced performance both up close and at distance.

Winchester introduces the 400 Legend, a new straight-walled cartridge that offers superior ballistics, deep penetration, excellent accuracy and quick knockdown.

The all-around 27 Nosler is good for anything in North America short of big bears or bison.

For 2018, Winchester is adding .25-06 Rem. and .450 Bushmaster to its ever-popular Deer Season XP line of rifle cartridges.

Winchester’s new Deer Season slug looks similar to a traditional Foster-style slug, but is paired with a rear stabilizer that is inserted into the heel of the projectile, resulting in increased accuracy.

Although just 1.75-inch long, Federal’s new Shorty shotshells offer similar patterns, energy and accuracy as full-size counterparts, and are perfect for teaching new hunters how to handle a full-sized shotgun.
