Brad Kriner from SIG Ammunition discusses the new 277 SIG Fury cartridge at SHOT Show 2020. This cartridge is designed to achieve significantly higher pressures (up to 80,000 psi) compared to standard cartridges, enabling greater power and knockdown energy from smaller platforms. Kriner highlights its three-piece construction, featuring a stainless steel head, brass body, and aluminum washer, which mechanically interlocks to withstand extreme pressures. This design was developed partly due to an Army contract requirement for over 20% weight reduction.

HSM Ammunition has expanded its low-recoil line with a new 6.5 Creedmoor variant designed to reduce felt recoil by 47%. This ammunition features a 140-grain Sierra bullet with an orange polymer tip, temperature-tolerant powders, and offers consistent performance for hunters and recoil-sensitive shooters. It boasts a muzzle velocity of 2340 FPS, muzzle energy of 1695 ft-lbs, and a ballistic coefficient of 0.546, providing peak performance out to 250 yards.
