New Guns & Gear for 2021—Federal Announces New Handgun Ammunition for 2021

From Federal

Federal Ammunition’s product teams are expanding handgun cartridge options in multiple product categories in 2021. Several new product line extensions in Hydra-Shok Deep, Punch, Syntech Range and more will be manufactured and delivered to dealers throughout the year. New-for-2021 product launch highlights include:

Hydra-Shok Deep in 380 Auto and 38 Special – These loads unlock the potential of smaller cartridges. They utilize Hydra-Shok Deep’s robust center post and compact core to consistently penetrate beyond the FBI-recommended 12-inch minimum through bare gel and heavy clothing.

Punch in 22 LR and 10mm Auto – Punch 22 LR uses a deep-penetrating bullet that makes the popular rimfire cartridge a viable self-defense option, while the 10mm Auto load’s jacketed hollow point produces the best expansion and penetration in the category.

Swift A-Frame JHP in 327 Federal Magnum and 10mm Auto – The A-Frame Jacketed Hollow Point bullet has a bonded front half which expands consistently across a broad velocity range, while the back half remains intact for deep penetration. This bullet is ideal for hunting with handguns.

Syntech Range in 380 Auto, 38 Special and 10mm Auto – Syntech Range loads use the TSJ polymer jacket to eliminate metal fouling and drastically reduce damaging barrel heat and friction. Syntech ammunition offers a smoother, cleaner and safer experience when training and having fun at the range.

“In addition to launching new 2021 products, we are also continuing to stay focused on marketing the new products launched a year ago, such as our Solid Core and American Eagle IRT Lead Free ammo,” said Federal’s Handgun Product Line Manager Chris Laack. “Solid Core is intended for hunting and protection against dangerous animals. The deep-penetrating, hard Solid Core bullet holds together while blowing through bone, and its Syntech jacket reduces friction and leading. American Eagle IRT utilizes lead-free bullets and the Catalyst lead-free primer to offer the same shelf life and ballistics of conventional range ammo. It’s an ideal solution for those shooting at an indoor range that requires lead-free ammunition.”

Federal ammunition can be found at dealers nationwide or purchased online direct from Federal. For more information on all products from Federal or to shop online, visit www.federalpremium.com.

New Guns & Gear for 2021— Kahles K525i DLR

From Swarovski Optik

Swarovski Optik North America, a subsidiary of the Austrian based company, announces the NEW KAHLES K525i DLR (Dynamic Long Range).

The rugged K525i with its magnification range has been developed for tactical use and long distances. It has now been improved based on shooter feedback with greater field of view and easier to read turrets.

While maintaining the clearly defined, precise clicks, the turret now features 100 clicks per rotation allowing for larger and easier to read numbers. With 10 mils of adustment per rotation and the highly visible turret indicator, knowing your adjustments is effortless.

An increased field of view, 8% greater than other K525i riflescopes, assists in faster target acquisition. Coupled with the SKMR4 1st focal plane reticle makes this a perfect match for competition and in the field.

As always, all of the operating elements can easily and comfortably be operated with your preferred hand, without having to reach over the scope and without having to move out of the shooting position. The patented parallax correction on top of the riflescope makes right and left-handed operation equally comfortable. Ergonomically the windage is ideally placed on the left side for right- handed shooters and on the right side for left-hand shooters. Left or right hand windage turrets are an option on the K525i DLR (as well as many other KAHLES rifle scope models).

A pioneer in riflescopes since 1898 and backed by a wealth of tradition, KAHLES is known throughout the world for their pioneering spirit and capability to deliver exceptional quality optics. KAHLES products are manufactured in Guntramsdorf, located near Vienna, Austria.

And if you’ve ever wondered which reticle is best, wire or etched, here’s what the experts had to say.

New Guns & Gear for 2021—Swarovski Optik Integrates Digital Intelligence into new ds GEN II

From Swarovski Optik

Swarovski Optik, a subsidiary of the Austrian based company, announces the dS GEN II riflescope, improving upon our new generation of riflescopes. The new design is slimmer and has greater distance between the magnification adjustment ring making it even easier to operate the adjustment ring when aiming.

The new dS GEN II shows not only the correct aiming point, but also the key ballistic data in the heads-up display without any distraction and in real time. Now with the option to select the G7 Ballistic Coefficient or the G1 Ballistic Coefficient providing added precision. As well as optional trajectory correction by means of impact point deviation (only necessary to measure muzzle velocity, BC calculation by means of impact point deviation).

The windage mark intervals are calculated based on the distance measured, the wind speeds set, and the ballistic data. Featuring five different wind speeds which can be switched via the App.

The new Gen II display features distance, muzzle velocity, energy, bullet flight time and an alignment indicator to show if the scope is level that clearly provides you with all the hunting data that can contribute to a successful hunt. With even more customization having six reticles to choose from and the ability to adjust the thickness of the lines and dots in the App.

The scope requires networking with a smartphone. Exchanging data is simple and straightforward via the Bluetooth® interface. The personal ballistic data entered is input directly into the dS app and transmitted immediately.

SWAROVSKI OPTIK has enhanced our already developed “smart” rifle scope, which provides hunters with even more intelligent support. Technical and long-range optical innovations, combined with the hunter’s own expertise, make it possible to remain totally focused even in challenging situations.
