Catalyst Primer<\/h3>\r\nOf note in the contract release is one specific technology from Federal Premium: its patented Catalyst primer.\r\n\r\nAccording to Federal, \"The extremely clean-burning Catalyst primer creates more uniform and complete propellant combustion.\" It yields minimal velocity variation and consistent bullet launch for improved accuracy.\r\n\r\nThe\u00a0Catalyst primer is also non-hydrophilic. That means it does not attract water molecules like DDNP-based mixes found in most lead-free primers, resulting in better reliability. The result is a clean and consistent ignition.\r\n\r\nFor more information on Federal Premium, go to\u00a0FederalPremium.com<\/a>.","post_title":"Federal Premium Wins FBI 9mm Handgun Training Round Contract","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"federal-premium-fbi-9mm-handgun","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-05-31 16:22:14","post_modified_gmt":"2023-05-31 16:22:14","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.dev.athlonoutdoors.com\/2018\/04\/30\/federal-premium-fbi-9mm-handgun\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"prev":true,"total_page":10},"paged":1,"column_class":"jeg_col_2o3","class":"jnews_block_23"};

It also offers up match accuracy and supersonic velocities beyond 1,300 yards. Furthermore, it provides less than half the recoil of cartridges with similar ballistics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \"The bullet design has been shot to win more matches than any other, thanks to a uniform jacket that ensures consistent, long-range accuracy, and a sleek boat-tail that maximizes ballistic coefficient,\" Federal says of the cartridge, which was created for the MSR 15 platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Federal debuted its 224 Valkyrie series in December 2017. Since then, it's quickly gained in popularity amongst long-range shooters. In addition, many gun makers introducing rifles chambered in the round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \"The 224 Valkyrie is based on a 30 Rem.\/6.8 SPC case necked down to .224 caliber,\" Mike Holm, Federal's global product lane director for centerfire ammunition, said in a statement. \"It beats the ballistics of all other MSR 15 cartridges, including the 22 Nosler, 223 Rem. and 6.5 Grendel. Plus, it offers comparable performance to larger rounds like the 6.5 Creedmoor, with roughly half the felt recoil\u2014and at a more economical price.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n Shipments of the .224 Valkyrie 90-grain Gold Medal Sierra MatchKing are already at dealers. The MSRP is $31.95. In addition, other .224 Valkyrie loads include the 60-grain Nosler<\/a> Ballistic Tip, 90-grain Fusion MSR and 75-grain American Eagle TMJ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For even more info, go to FederalPremium.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Federal Adds 90gr Sierra MatchKing to .224 Valkyrie Series","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"federal-224-valkyrie-ammo","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-05-31 16:21:49","post_modified_gmt":"2023-05-31 16:21:49","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.dev.athlonoutdoors.com\/2018\/06\/01\/federal-224-valkyrie-ammo\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":131578,"post_author":"645","post_date":"2018-04-30 09:00:02","post_date_gmt":"2018-04-30 13:00:02","post_content":"\r\n\r\nThe Federal Bureau of Investigation<\/a> (FBI) is ramping up its 9mm training.\r\n\r\nVista Outdoor \u2014 Federal Premium's parent company \u2014 won the FBI's contract. The goal is to supply the FBI and \"other Federal Government Agencies\" with a high-performance Federal Premium 9mm handgun training round specifically designed to support their mission.\r\n\r\n[in_content post=\"191154\" alignment=\"align-left\" \/]\r\n\r\nThe FBI 9mm contract comes on the heels of Federal's .40-caliber contract<\/a> with the Department of Homeland Security.\r\n Not many activities yield more satisfaction than helping a kid enjoy their first shots at the range. It is essential that we do our best to make their first experiences safe, fun and successful. I often start kids from the bench on a 5.56mm rifle, preferably suppressed, like our DDM4V7. Having the V7 equipped with a DD Wave suppressor and its weight supported by bags or a bipod, the rig stays on the bench, helping the muzzle stay pointed in a safe direction and reducing arm fatigue while we get those first jittery shots out of the way. The suppressor reduces the flinch-inducing muzzle blast and recoil, making the experience that much more pleasant and allowing us to focus on the basics of safe marksmanship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When the time comes to learn other shooting positions, the V7 platform is very lightweight but soft shooting with its mid-length gas system. It doesn\u2019t hurt the experience that kids (and adults) generally think the V7 is one of the coolest guns they have ever seen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Training our youth to learn respect for firearms and how to shoot them does not breed natural-born killers. It builds a solid foundation for a generation that will have the passion to defend our Second Amendment rights. If we also focus on mentoring children with a good moral compass, they will be less apt to have any desire for ill intent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Picture yourself in an empty white room. It\u2019s completely empty except for a flashing red button the size of a basketball adhered to the wall with a small sign attached over the top that says, DO NOT PUSH. Even as an adult, the curiosity is there\u2014the voice inside that says, \u201cI wonder what happens if I push it?\u201d Most adults would struggle with curiosity and possibly push the button. Now imagine a very young child stumbling upon a gun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n[in_content post=\"21645\" alignment=\"align-right\" \/]\n\n\n\n Toys, Tools, Guns & Rules: A Children\u2019s Book About Gun Safety<\/em> is an amazing book written by Julie Golob focusing on teaching kids to shoot. Julie is a world shooting champion and veteran. Her powerful shooting skills, firearms knowledge and experience as a mother have enabled her to write a must-have book that should be a part of every home with children, with or without guns. Golob wrote her book at a level young children can understand. It explains the different types of guns, who may have these guns, and the rules surrounding them. She has done a beautiful job in engaging children with age-appropriate, thought-provoking questions to keep their attention and enable them to retain the subject matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n What I was most impressed with, however, went beyond the book. With the book comes a link to her website for \u201cNext Steps.\u201d Here you will find downloads that include coloring pages and other printouts for children. But the most valuable is the adult\u2019s guide. Julie goes in depth for each section of the book explaining the hows and whys. She gives such great detail for adult education to make sure there is a complete understanding as well as how to talk to children about each topic.<\/p>\n\n\n\nFBI 9mm Contract Details<\/h3>\r\nThe IDIQ (indefinite delivery\/indefinite quantity) contract has four option years.\r\n\r\nAs far as specifics go, the contract is for up to $19 million in 9mm handgun training rounds.\r\n\r\nThe contracted ammunition \"is built distinctively to FBI's specifications.\"\r\n\r\n\"We are extremely proud of this important contract, which continues Federal Premium's long-running tradition of supplying law enforcement, military personnel and civilians worldwide with the most reliable ammunition possible,\" Federal Premium President Jason Vanderbrink said in a statement. \"This high-value, optimized training round utilizes a new match-grade bullet designed specifically for the FBI to maximize accuracy, along with Federal Premium\u2019s Catalyst lead-free primer formulation to provide reliable, consistent ignition.\u201d\r\n
