SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -(Ammoland.com)- AMMO, Inc. (OTC:POWW), a technology leader and premier American ammunitions developer and manufacturer, most recently released the new STREAK line of visual ammunition.
STREAK’s combination of HyperClean Technology and an illuminated, non-incendiary projectile have proven a winner with consumers and indoor ranges around the country.
STREAK’s patented formulation incorporates a non-flammable phosphor material that utilizes the light emitted during discharging of the round to make STREAK glow. STREAK is not on fire and does not generate heat therefor making STREAK is safe for indoor range use where the illumination is best seen.
Early reports from the field mention STREAK visual ammunition is also a great way to wrap up a day of outdoor shooting, waiting until the waning moments of daylight too, “go STREAKING”.
“We were fortunate enough to get an early test run with AMMO, Inc.’s STREAK ammo. Our clients loved it so much that we have decided to do a weekly STREAK Shooting night at our ranges. STREAK ads a whole new dynamic to target shooting,” said Bren Brown, President of Frontier Justice, The Midwest’s Premier Firearms Destination.
STREAK ammunition is intended for use in areas free of natural sunlight when the human eye’s pupil is most open. Dusk-till-dawn and indoor lighting permit the pupil to open enough to see STREAK ammunition.
Contrast is what permits you to see a glowing object moving at the speed of a bullet. The darker the backdrop and target the better you’ll see STREAK.
Will it ever be available in rifle calibers?
Think I rememberrrading in a past article that visual is not possible from forward viewer and only 15-20 degree off shooter sight center
I always applaud private businesses and innovation, it’s what drives the country forward. This, like any other product, will appeal to a certain segment of the shooting population. Whether that’s enough to support the company…..well, we’ll see. As for price, I just found one site (let Google be your friend) that is selling the 9mm, 147gr for $.65 per round. Don’t remember what the number of rounds per box was. This will be a novelty for the range ONLY, IMO, as the bullet is a FMJ and even if it weren’t the first question I’d have would be, if I… Read more »
How much?
Goddammit, how much??!!
Is it too much to ask you to put that in your articles?
I’m looking forward to seeing these and trying them to see if they are good enough to use in a low light class as we get students to familiarize themselves with the white lights. At .75 cents to $1 a round we won’t be shooting a lot of them though.
It’s not new, an outfit named G-2 Research came out with this stuff three years ago. Pretty neat regardless.
