Umarex Origin .22 PCP Air Rifle
Umarex Origin .22 PCP Air Rifle with High Pressure Hand Pump offers the most affordable all-inclusive first step into the high-power world of pre-charged pneumatic shooting. The patented pre-pressurized tank delivers full power with only 13 pumps of the 3-stage 4,500 PSI hand pump. Fill the tank with 100 pumps (half the number required with comparable air rifles) and you may fire 40 shots with 26 foot-pounds of energy, enough to drive alloy .22 pellets at 1,000 feet a second. Fast follow-up shots are easy with a side-mounted cocking lever and 10-shot auto-indexing rotary magazine (two magazine come with the gun). Two-stage adjustable 5.5-pound trigger. Combination Picatinny and 11mm dovetail optics rail. MSRP for rifle and pump $349.99. For more information contact: Umarex U.S.A., Dept.

Black Hills Dual Performance precision-machined monolithic copper bullets expand on impact to create a large wound cavity. Then petals split off from the body of the bullet to cut separate wound channels while the bulk of the bullet—still retaining a very substantial portion of the original weight but now free from unnecessary drag—penetrates deep to ensure lethal damage. Dual Performance is being initially offered in 5.56mm cartridges with a 62-grain bullet at 3,000 feet a second (from a 20-inch barrel) and a 152-grain .308 at 2,800 ft/s (from a 24-inch barrel). With Black Hills accuracy ensuring the terminal impact is delivered where it counts, Dual Performance sets a new standard for these popular calibers. MSRP for 5.56mm 50-count box $79; for .308 20-count box $53. For more information, phone: (605) 348-5150; or go online at: www.black-hills.com

Federal Force X2 shotshells turn any 12 gauge into a self-defense powerhouse with nine copper-plated 00 FX2 buckshot pellets that split exactly in half on impact. The result is up to 18 wound channels with maximum transfer of energy from payload to target. The split pellets are also less likely to pass through walls, etc., reducing the risk to people who may be downrange of the intended target. Standard 2-3/4-inch shotshells loaded for manageable recoil so you can stay on target with fast follow-up shots. MSRP for 10-count box $22.99. For more information contact: Federal Ammunition, Dept. FFG, 900 Ehlen Dr., Anoka, MN 55303; (800) 379-1732; www.federalpremium.com
