Federal FireStick

The Federal Premium FireStick is the critical component of a revolutionary new ignition system that uses an encapsulated polymer propellant charge that loads from the breech, while the bullet is loaded from the muzzle. This makes the powder totally impervious to moisture and the elements and provides for fast, effortless loading.

The FireStick is fueled with clean-burning 100- or 120-grain Hodgdon Triple Eight powder charges and is compatible with Tradition’s new NitroFire muzzleloader. The FireStick unloads quickly, simply and safely by slipping it out of the action — there’s no need to fire the rifle. MSRP: $26.95. Info; www.federalpremium.com 

Federal Premium HammerDown Ammo

Federal Premium HammerDown ammunition is designed for optimal cycling and overall performance in lever-action rifles, with load velocities customized to produce superior ballistics and terminal performance in this short-barrel rifle platform. The construction of the molecularly bonded soft-point or hollow-point bullets have also been adjusted for the best accuracy and expansion at those velocities.

The geometry of each round’s case and bullet ensures flawless cycling through tubular magazine and typical lever-action feeding systems. For the initial launch of the HammerDown product line, Federal selected the most popular lever-action rifle calibers: .327 Fed. Mag., .357 Mag., .44 Rem. Mag., .45 Colt, .30-30 Win. and .45-70 Govt.

These bipods will mount to any rifle with a picatinny rail and feature spring-loaded folding legs that are adjustable for height and come in a variety of sizes for use in any shooting position. Models available with the picatinny rail mount include: SBR2P, SBRMP, SL2P, SLMP, S25CP and S25CP CAMO. MSRP: $159.02-$231.72. Info: www.harrisbipods.com/

Remington Premier AccuTip-V Ammunition

Optimized to deliver maximum downrange energy, AccuTip bullets expand quickly, producing a heavy dose of transferred energy. At impact, the gold polymer tip is driven rearward causing the thin jacket and soft lead core to fragment violently. The use of temperature stable propellant ensures consistent velocity and performance even in extreme environmental conditions.

By Bluetooth pairing the unit to a mobile device, calls and notifications connect through the muffs. MSRP: $149.99. Info: www.walkersgameear.com
