HOT WAD
Few things are more
challenging than hitting
fast moving, high flying
waterfowl. To meet this
challenge, Remington is
introducing the fast-
est velocity, highest
downrange pat-
tern energies ever
produced in the
history of steel water-
fowl loads; the revolutionary
new HyperSonic Steel. At the heart of the new HyperSonic Steel
load is the patent pending Xelerator Wad. The newly designed wad
features a unique Ignition Chamber which allows higher velocity
with safe pressures.
The Xelerator Wad works when the primer ignites a small portion of the powder charge captured in the “Ignition Chamber.” This
captive charge accelerates the wad and payload forward until the
remainder of the powder charge is ignited. The increased volume
behind the wad allows for the remainder of the propellant to burn,
driving the shot to 1700 fps without causing excessive pressure—all
in just a fraction of a millisecond. www.remington.com
NO-LICK STRIP
Experienced game and waterfowl hunters know the
importance of having a first aid kit ready for their dogs
in case of accidents or emergencies. Anti-Lick Strip
Prevent bandages were created by Nurtured Pets, a company focused on health and wellness products for animals. They can either be used as a therapeutic bandage
or applied at the earliest sign of a problem, eliminating a
pet’s drive to lick, bite and scratch before skin irritations
can occur.
Anti-Lick Strip bandages are constructed with a
peel-and-stick adhesive that lasts up to five days—even
when your dog is tracking prey across muddy terrain or
lying low in a marshy duck blind.

HOWA YOU?
Howa TALON combines the
best performance features of a thumbhole stock with the recoil reduction that
BLACKHAWK! has come to be known for in rifle and shotgun stocks. TALON uses
a new two-stage recoil compensating system that reduces felt recoil by up to 70 percent.
Made of polymer and alloy, the TALON is durable, reliable and built to last. The large, skel-
etonized thumbhole allows for the heaviest glove while improving target acquision, steady
firearm control and repeatability—time after time. This rifle is designed for deer, elk, and predator hunters alike—and affords
comfort through all rifle calibers. The TALON is also offered as a combo gun with two different scope packages. The Standard
Barrel model comes with a NikkoStirling 3-10x42 Nighteater, while the Heavy Barrel model is equipped with a NikkoStirling
4-16x44 Nighteater. Both scopes have duplex reticles and come with rings and a one-piece Picatinny-style base.
