You know what goes together like milk and cookies? Mini shotguns and mini shot shells. For some time Aguila ruled the market with these mini shells and I can’t help but think that the release of technically not shotguns like the Remington Tac 14 and the Mossberg Shockwave greatly improved the sales of these shells.

Freedom Munitions is a one-stop shop for ammunition. They load their own ammunition in Idaho. Using the high-grade components, Freedom’s experienced machine operators monitor the loading process doing frequent quality checks. The result is high quality new and re-manufactured ammunition.

Hornady, a 60+ year old company famous for match grade ammunition, has filled that void with their new Hornady Precision Hunter […]

It was a pleasant surprise to have Armscor USA provide some of their ammunition to test. Not only does this lower our operating costs, but it allows us to throw another load […]
Special thanks to American Shooters Clarksville for making special range accommodations at their first-class facility. And thanks to Clear Ballistics for providing a ballistics gel block for me to use. G2 Research is an American company that produces a range of ammunition for handguns, rifles and shotguns. They precision machine each round using copper instead of lead. Copper bullets generally hold their profile […]
