Extreme Shock Ammunition Launches New Website

Extreme Shock Ammunition

CLINTWOOD, VA --(Ammoland.com)- When Extreme Shock USA first began marketing their line of Fragmenting, lead-free ammunition, we did so through Paramount Marketing.

Paramount built and marketed the first Extreme Shock web page. This is the “.com” page. It wasn’t long, before we became aware that we had to distance ourselves from this “unique” Style of marketing.

There was a lot of miscommunication from the marketing that described Extreme Shock ammunition into magical performance levels that defied both basic ballistic knowledge and the laws of physics.

When the flaws in the marketing were brought to Paramount Marketing’s attention, they chose not to listen to our input and failed to change their strategy.

Extreme Shock then made the decision to hire a new and different, main stream marketing group with a more reality based marketing strategy, Blue August.

Extreme Shock is no longer associated with nor has anything to do with Paramount Marketing which owns and continues to maintain the old ExtremeShockusa.com site. Extreme Shock now owns and operates a different web site, www.extremeshockusa.net.

We would like to apologize to our customers that have been inconvenienced by the old “dot com” website, however we are eager to continue business with you on the new website. Extreme Shock is a family owned and operated business selling high performance lead-free, fragmenting ammunition to hunters and CCW permit holders, and gun enthusiasts worldwide.

Come and see for yourself, what Extreme Shock is really all about.

Extreme Shock .223 100 grain ASP Ammunition

Extreme Shock Ammunition

CLINTWOOD, VA --(Ammoland.com)- Extreme Shock is at it again, we have improved the .223 100 grain ASP (Advanced Subsonic Product).

In the ASP’s inception, Extreme Shock designed the bullet to function the Colt M4 battle rifle at subsonic velocities in full automatic.

However, due to it’s popularity, shooters was using the round in various weapon platforms.  However, there is a quite a difference in the military M4 as opposed to commercially marketed AR-15 series of rifles.  The military M4 chamber is larger than the commercial ARs.

This resulted in the Extreme Shock technicians and ballisticians developing in 2 separate subsonic loads.  Designing subsonic ammunition is a delicate art, there is no one size fits all as with other ammunition.  To achieve subsonic velocity one must change the powder, powder charge and seating depth.   Extreme Shock has the only 100 grain .223 subsonic round that will fully function a military M4 and/or commercial developed AR-15s.  You’ll have to hear it to believe it. No modifications to the weapon.

With noise comparable to a large air gun, the ASP gives the operator total stealth to achieve their objectives.  Get in, get out without being heard!

Allegiance Ammunition

Extreme Shock Ammunition

CLINTWOOD, VA --(Ammoland.com)- Extreme Shock Ammunition has announced that it will be producing its own line of high quality copper plated, lead core ammunition under the brand name “Allegiance Ammunition.”

This new line of ammunition comes in response to the demand for affordable, high quality ammunition and a shortage of components in the market. Each Allegiance round will undergo the same strict quality control procedures as the Extreme Shock tactical line.

The 9mm, .40 S&W, .45 ACP, .223 and .308 will have the case mouth and primer sealed, or waterproofed to US mil spec standard. This procedure will give the Allegiance brand of ammunition an estimated 20-year shelf life.

Allegiance is economically priced for target shooting, yet performance enhanced for self-defense situations. Though the .380 ACP is the first caliber available, a 9mm will be available in late October, 2010, with .40S&W, .45ACP, .223 and .308 following soon after. Ask your dealer for the most high quality, performance-driven, target ammo in the world–Allegiance!

MSRP for a 50-round box of Allegiance .380 ACP is $23.66. To learn more about Allegiance Ammunition, call (276) 926-6827.

Extreme Shock Ammunition Cuts Prices

Extreme Shock Ammunition

CLINTWOOD, VA --(AmmoLand.com)- Extreme Shock Ammunition is pleased to announce a major price cut across the board of all Extreme Shock products for its consumers.

In this time of recession, many manufacturers are raising the prices of their products as the prices of materials and components increase due to the economic downturn.

Extreme Shock is thus proud to announce that they are stepping away from the crowd and reducing the price of their ammunition!

As a result of the company’s growth, Extreme Shock has expanded and now has the ability to produce its own components and buy raw material in volume. This economic savings is being passed along to the Extreme Shock customer, effective May 1, 2010.

Look at the massive fragmentation inside a ballistic gel block. The CT2 is fully capable of stopping the threat instantly. The 45 ACP 150 grain CT2 was shot at a distance of only 3 yards with no exit.

Extreme Shock Ammunition

CLINTWOOD, VA --(AmmoLand.com)- Constantly working to achieve maximum performance from their products, Extreme Shock is now able to release the improved CT2 (Copper Training/Tactical), thus expanding the CT2 further into the tactical realm.

When it was first released, the CT2 was primarily designed to be a training round. In these monetarily depressed times, The Extreme Shock Team has taken the initiative to produce a more cost efficient self defense round.

By enhancing the core design, our engineers have been able to design the bullet to fragment as expansively as our tungsten core munitions.

You now get the same results from the copper as you do with the tungsten core. The tungsten due to its heavy, dense core provides long range performance. But as most self defense shooting situations occur within 3 yards or closer to your assailant, the CT2 is ideal to a person who wishes to protect their life and the lives of their family members.

The above picture illustrates the massive fragmentation inside a ballistic gel block.

The CT2 is fully capable of stopping the threat instantly. It should be noted that the 45 ACP 150 grain CT2 was shot at a distance of only 3 yards with no exit.

Extreme Shock Ammunition

CLINTWOOD, VA --(AmmoLand.com)- In regards to self-defense with a firearm, you always plan for the worst case scenario. That’s why it’s best to choose a bullet that will put the maximum advantage in your corner. Extreme Shock frangible ammunition is the logical choice.

However, before going into the reasons why, I cannot stress heavily enough on the importance of training. A person who has practiced once a week with a .32ACP will beat a person who carries, but has never fired a .44 Magnum. Whichever firearm you decide to use, you must practice firing hundreds of rounds in realistic scenarios. Marksmanship and Tactics win gunfights. I cannot teach these things in this article, but I can recommend solid ammunition.

The important question to be asked, of course, is: What makes a good self-defense ammunition?

Simply put, the point is not to wound or kill your attacker. The point is to stop him in his tracks from hurting you. This is commonly referred to as either “Stopping Power” or “Knock-Down Power”. This is a bullet’s ability to incapacitate an assailant – the greater the ability, the less chance your attacker will be able to do you harm after he is shot.

Extreme Shock 9mm AFR ammunition in Perma-Gel Bullet fragments to release ALL of it's energy.

Extreme Shock frangible bullets usually expand and stop in the human body, and thus the attacker absorbs all of the bullet’s kinetic energy than if the bullet had merely zipped through him and left two small holes. This is pure “Stopping Power”.

A common concern for people when trying to decide which bullet to choose for self defense is over-penetration inside the home. Extreme Shock’s lead-free, frangible ammunition is designed to transfer ALL (100%) of its kinetic energy into the target thus maximizing your “Knock-Down Power” and stopping the threat.

The Extreme Shock Air Freedom Round (A.F.R.) was designed for use by the US Air Marshalls on board aircraft and is the ideal round for the home defense firearm. The bullet is specifically engineered not to over-penetrate a target. The added benefit of the AFR is that it will not ricochet and thereby reduces the likelihood of incurring secondary casualties.

Extreme Shock also has a proven track record. It has been adopted by various government and law enforcement agencies. When facing an attacker, the reliability of one’s self defense ammunition can be a matter of life or death. Extreme Shock has endured and passed rigorous government testing and certification. Thus you can be assured that Extreme Shock ammunition is reliable.

“But,” you say, “there’s no way it’s THAT important to have a frangible bullet over my favorite lead-core round.” That may be well and true. I know you’re not planning on missing, and that you figure you’ll be able to put a couple of shots center-of-mass with no problems…but.

Do not overestimate your ability when the bullets start flying. There won’t be a perfect Weaver stance involved, trigger discipline will degrade, and carefully aimed shots will be non-existent- due to adrenaline or situation.

So we find ourselves back at the original question; what makes a good self-defense ammunition?

1. You are safer because your attacker is incapacitated after one or two shots and thus unable to do you injury.
2. Innocent bystanders and third parties are safer because frangible bullets will not exit the body and go on to injure someone else.
3. The ricochet danger is eliminated thus reducing secondary casualties stated above.
4. Furthermore, frangible bullet’s stopping power takes the target down quickly so that they won’t be spraying wild lead core bullets around again endangering uninvolved third parties
5. This ammunition is reliable. You entrusting your most valuable possession to it’s dependability, your life.
6. Lastly, use of Extreme Shock will strengthen your defense in court in the ensuing aftermath. Use of Extreme Shock shows that you had concern for the safety of others, used the minimum of force to eliminate the threat ( you didn’t use a magazine of ammo), and reduced your collateral damage.

It is my hope that no one who reads this article ever finds themselves in a situation that warrants the use of a firearm to defend him or herself. But remember, Plan for the worst. Be safe, stay vertical.

Extreme Shock Trophy Game Hunting Ammunition

Extreme Shock Ammunition

CLINTWOOD, VA –-(AmmoLand.com)- Extreme Shock Ammunition, known for producing the world’s most advanced ammunition, has successfully produced the perfect round for Trophy Game Hunting.

Extreme Shock has accomplished what other bullet makers have been trying to do for years–design a hunting bullet that gives 3-4 inches of clean penetration into the animal before fragmenting to release 100% of it’s energy into the soft tissue. The Trophy Game is designed to penetrate through thick hide and dense bone then fragment when it impacts soft organic tissue and fluids.

Unlike other bullets that pass through the game, Trophy Game bullets deliver 100% of their kinetic energy inside the target, making for a safe, fast, and humane harvest with no loss of meat.

The Extreme Shock Trophy Game Hunting line of bullets exhibits superior performance in the target or through the intervening brush. Empirical testing clearly shows that the round nose bullet at moderate velocities travels through brush with minimal deflection. They also tend to follow a straight path inside an animal on their way to the vitals, which is why they are preferred for hunting extremely large game. The Trophy Game bullets are made with controlled expansion features which will work with absolute reliability.

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.

Extreme Shock 100 Grain SRT Ammunition

Extreme Shock Ammunition

CLINTWOOD, VA – -(AmmoLand.com)- Extreme Shock Ammunition, known for producing the world’s most advanced ammunition, has added the .223 100 grain Short Ranged Tactical (SRT) to its impressive line of hunting and tactical ammo. This specific round was engineered for Close Quarters Combat (CQB) applications and training purposes.

The SRT’s 100 grain projectile is a frangible, lead-free design that will fragment on harder surfaces that would typically cause a lead-core bullet to ricochet. This projectile consists of a compressed tungsten powder core that is encased in a high quality copper jacket, with a special DuPont coating to reduce the velocity. This all works to produce lower recoil and minimize muzzle flash, thus enhancing the ability to acquire second shot placement faster. The dense tungsten core allows it to penetrate less dense materials with ease, while still remaining frangible. The velocity of this design allows it to travel slow enough to penetrate windshields without deflection, yet fast enough to still fragment inside a soft target. With 745 ft. lbs. of energy combined with a 100% kinetic energy drop (which is an advantage over the over-penetration of lead-core munitions), this round is the safest yet most lethal CQB/Training round manufactured anywhere in the world today.

The 100 grain SRT has an MSRP of $41.27 for a 20 round box.

Extreme Shock Ammunition

CLINTWOOD, VIRGINIA - Extreme Shock Ammunition, known for producing the world’s most advanced ammunition, announces the creation of a new kind of porcelain barrel coating. The new X-Coat “C” is a dry lubricant that represents the latest in 21st century technology.

Since X-Kote-C is a dry lubricant, it does not attract sand or dust, so any weapon is ready to use immediately after cleaning. After the initial application of X-KOTE-C cleaning takes half the time of CLP because the dry lube creates a molecular bond with the metal which prevents carbon and brass from sticking to the metal. Cleaning becomes a simple wipe down.

Another advantage to the X-Kote-C is that it is not classified as a Hazmat. What this means is that you can clean your gun in any enclosed area. This becomes increasingly important in war time desert situations.

Unlike traditional CLP, X-KOTE-C is ready when you need it. No weighting, no wetness, no danger and more firearm protection.
