Federal American Eagle has joined the .17-caliber revolution, and will now offer its own version of .17 Win. Super Mag.

Federal Premium re-entered the muzzleloader projectile market in a big way last year, with the introduction of its revolutionary Trophy Copper Muzzleloader Bullet. Featuring the company's innovative B.O.R. (Bullet Obturating Ramp) Lock MZ system, the new submission was crafted to provide top-notch accuracy in a non-sabot design. It served as a game changer for the industry, and Federal hasn't slowed pace: in 2016, the folks in Anoka will be rolling out a lead version. Here are five things you need to know.

Airgun enthusiasts will soon have an ammunition that represents the best of two worlds. H&N Sport's new Sniper Magnum pellets are designed to offer long-range accuracy without sacrificing downrange energy.

Winchester’s new E-Tech environmentally friendly shotshell utilizes wads made from biopolymers that are certified as home compostable.

Federal’s new blended Heavyweight TSS loads combine No. 7 and No. 9, or No. 8 and No. 10 shot to deliver extremely high pellet-count patterns.

Federal expands its Upland Steel ammo line to include lighter 12- and 20-gauge loads, ideal for doves and smaller upland game, especially in areas that require the use of non-lead shot.

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.
