Extreme Shock Ammunition

CLINTWOOD, VA –-(AmmoLand.com)- Extreme Shock Ammunition, known for producing the world’s most advanced ammunition, has added the .308 160 grain Short Ranged Tactical (SRT) to its impressive line of hunting and tactical ammo.

The newly developed .308 160 grain SRT was engineered for modern law enforcement and military personnel who require the legendary stopping power of the .308 without suffering the over-penetration common to the heavy bullet.

Extreme Shock 308 Ammo

The SRT allows entry teams to utilize M-14 & AR10s as entry weapons and minimizes the liability aspects of the heavy caliber.

These lead-free rounds are frangible and will fragment on hard surfaces that might cause a lead-core bullet to ricochet. A special coated copper jacket surrounds a compressed tungsten powder core to reduce the bullet’s velocity, producing lower recoil and minimizing muzzle flash, thus allowing faster second shot placement.

The dense tungsten core allows it to penetrate less dense materials with ease, while still remaining frangible. While lead-core munitions are susceptible to over-penetration, these rounds have 745 ft. lbs. of energy combined with a 100% kinetic energy drop, making them the safest yet most lethal CQB/Training round manufactured anywhere in the world today.

The 160 grain SRT has an MSRP of $19.26 for 6 rounds or $66.05 for 20 rounds.

Hornady Ammunition

Grand Island, NE - -(AmmoLand.com)- Superformance ammunition is 100 to 200 fps FASTER than any conventional ammunition on the market today, and achieves this performance in EVERY gun, WITHOUT increases in felt recoil, muzzle blast, temperature sensitivity, fouling or loss of accuracy.

Innovative
Superformance is a cutting edge technological advancement in ammunition design that transcends convention and achieves the highest performance of any ammunition on the market today.

Specialized
Superformance uses ultra progressive propellants that take your favorite SST or GMX bullets to levels of performance that are simply unattainable with conventional propellants. In order to get more velocity in the past – shooters have used a brute force approach – large charge weights of a slow burning powder in a larger cartridge case. Ultimately this leads to more recoil and muzzle blast. The Superformance solution is an elegant approach that utilizes specialized powders…at NORMAL charge weights, that impart ALL useable energy to the bullet reducing the ROCKET NOZZLE EFFECT at the muzzle while still increasing velocity!

Versatile
Superformance provides increased performance, and is safe to use in ALL firearms, including semi-autos, lever gun and pump actions.

Increases in rifle performance, no increases in barrel wear and felt recoil, along with superior temperature stability are all realized with Superformance ammunition.

Increased speed, accuracy, and lethality – Superformance is a new breed of SUPER Premium ammunition that delivers it all!

It really IS… Rocket Science!

National Ammo Day is November 19 2009

National Ammo Day

The goals of Ammo Day:
The goal of National Ammo Day is to empty the ammunition from the shelves of your local gun store, sporting goods, or hardware store and put that ammunition in the hands of law-abiding citizens. Not hard to do considering the recent Ammo Shortages but lets make your support of the Second Amendment known–by voting with your dollars!

There are an estimated 75 MILLION gun owners in the United States of America. If each gun owner or Second Amendment supporter buys 100 rounds of ammunition, that’s 7.5 BILLION rounds in the hands of law-abiding citizens!

The gun and ammunition manufacturers have been taking the brunt of all the frivolous lawsuits, trying to put these folks out of business. Well, not if we can help it! And we CAN help it by buying ammunition on November 19!

The purpose of National Ammo Day is to make it known that ammunition is in the hands of LAW ABIDING CITIZENS, not to frighten anyone or put ammunition in the hands of criminals.

It is CRITICAL that you comply with all the laws of your state and locale if you participate in National Ammo Day.

Before purchasing guns or ammunition, review the laws and safety issues for proper handling and storage. Don’t give the gun-grabbers any “ammo” to use against us!

Contact your local representative or law enforcement agency/office/station for specific information for your state or locale.

Remington Arms Company

Madison, NC –-(AmmoLand.com)- Remington Wingmaster HD has set the industry standard for waterfowl, turkey and predator hunting ammunition since its introduction. Now, hunters seeking the ultimate in performance from their shotshell ammunition have one more reason to choose it – a new lower price.

Remington Wingmaster HD derives its Drop-Dead-Better® performance from two main attributes. The proprietary alloy from which Wingmaster HD pellets are made is specially-formulated to provide the perfect balance of pellet weight and pattern density. Additionally, Remington’s precision manufacturing process ensures consistent pellet size and shape.

This translates into more consistent pattern density at all ranges and greater overall pattern energy at extended ranges. Despite the new great value at your favorite retailer, Remington is still manufacturing Wingmaster HD with the same quality components and awe-inspiring performance hunters have come to expect.

With the roundest, most consistent heavy-density pellets we’ve ever produced, its on-bird pellet count and downrange energy are second to none. Compare density and performance with others at any price, and you’ll see why birds aren’t the only ones crushed by the news.

ANOKA, Minn. – -(AmmoLand.com)- Two trailers headlined by Federal Premium® will make stops at dealer locations and events across the country. The first stop at H&H Gun Range in Oklahoma City, OK from July 16-18 begins a four-month period that will see the two trailers appear at more than 60 events.

Last year was the first time a branded trailer visited retail locations and special events. The response from consumers and dealers was overwhelmingly positive.

“At locations where the trailer stopped we saw an increase in store traffic, sales and overall attendance,” said Dealer Services Manager Bart Biedinger. “Because of this success we had requests for a trailer from all over the country this year. And even though we added a second trailer, we still won’t make it to all of the locations we’d like to.”

More Information and Interaction
Last year’s debut saw a trailer filled with information on Federal Premium Ammunition, Weaver® and Nitrex™ optics and the full line of ammunition and accessories. Finding out from dealers and customers what worked, what didn’t and what needed to be changed was a priority. The result is two trailers that work even harder at engaging, informing and motivating possible customers.

“We’ve got some really exciting things in the trailers this year,” said Biedinger. “At the Shooters Ridge® Trick My 10/22 Kiosk, customers can put together their favorite configuration electronically and decide what parts they want to buy.”

In addition, there is a Federal Cartridge Company timeline dating back to 1922 and sectioned optics that show the features of Weaver and Nitrex at a whole new level. Visitors can also see detailed bullet and product models and put their hands on even more scopes and binoculars.

On-Going Promotions
Consumers who stop by the trailer can take advantage of a few trailer-specific deals. Anyone who buys a Weaver Grand Slam® or Super Slam™ scope can get a free canvas range bag (MSRP: $125.00). Consumers who buy two boxes of Federal Premium ammunition are eligible to receive a free hat as well.
