This video introduces Shelltech Ammunition's innovative two-piece case technology, featuring an aluminum base and nickel stainless steel alloy cylinder. This design results in casings 50% lighter than brass, offering significant weight savings for shooters. The material composition also contributes to enhanced accuracy, with laboratory testing indicating a 200% improvement. Shelltech offers various loads, including a high-velocity 65-grain copper polymer round.

Federal Ammunition introduced the new 7mm Backcountry round at Shot Show 2025, designed for short-barreled rifles and suppressed platforms. This cartridge utilizes a novel Peak Alloy case, enabling significantly higher chamber pressures (up to 80,000 PSI) compared to standard cases (around 60,000 PSI). This allows for impressive velocity and terminal performance from shorter barrels. The ammunition features a 170-grain Terminal Ascent bullet, achieving 3,000 feet per second from a 20-inch barrel, offering a balance of rapid expansion and deep penetration for hunting applications. The Peak Alloy case is designed to be reloadable using standard dies.

The primary US commercial offerings, FMJ and SP, are detailed for different applications.

Federal's Gold Medal Grand shotshells are engineered to reduce felt recoil and improve shooting performance. The key innovation is a two-piece wad with SoftCell technology, which cushions the shot column and delays compression, leading to a softer impulse on the shooter. This design also contributes to tighter, more uniform shot patterns.
