Federal Premium Launches New Gold Medal Grand Shotshells
ANOKA, Minnesota – December 15, 2016 – (ArmsVault.com) – Federal Premium Ammunition is pleased to announce a new load in its Gold Medal shotshell lineup. For decades, Gold Medal shotshells have set the standard—and world records—for competitive trap, skeet and sporting clays shooters. For 2017, Federal Premium improved upon the industry-leading design with Gold Medal Grand. Shipments will be delivered to dealers in January.
The new shotshells, offered in 10 different loads, offer less felt recoil, more reliable ignition, improved shot hardness and excellent reloadability—all with the same world-class performance shooters expect from Federal Premium Ammunition.
