This video introduces the new Remington Nitro Steel Duplex ammunition for 2025, featuring a dual-payload of two different steel shot sizes in a single load. Chris Carson, Director of Centerfire Product Development for Remington, explains that this design aims to provide versatility for waterfowl hunters, allowing them to engage targets at varying distances without changing ammunition. The loads are high-velocity, reaching 1,400-1,450 feet per second, and will be available in 12 gauge with plans for 20 gauge next year.

This video explores the effectiveness of shotguns for hunting game at extended ranges, specifically focusing on 100 meters. The instructor uses pattern boards to test various loads, including 32-gram #5 shot, 50-gram BB shot, and a 28-gram high-velocity load. The results indicate that while some hits are possible at 100 meters, consistent, clean kills are unlikely, especially with smaller shot sizes. The video emphasizes the importance of ethical hunting practices and understanding ammunition limitations at range.

Brad Kryer from Winchester Ammunition introduces the new 12 gauge Varmint X load featuring Shot Lock technology. This load utilizes BBs and aims to improve pellet retention and consistency at range, offering a significant increase in effective pellet count compared to traditional Double-Ought Buck for varmint and predator hunting.
