Federal’s new Hi-Bird Fiber Wad Bismuth shotshell, a 2-3/4-inch, 1-1/4-ounce, No. 5, 12 gauge load, is a more effective way to minimize your shotgun shooting footprint without giving up performance. Using a new Hi-Bird Fiber Wad and bismuth shot, the new load, traveling at 1,330 feet per second, features the same cellulose over-powder wad technology as original Hi-Bird Fiber Wad, but with a payload of 9.6 g/cc bismuth to meet nontoxic requirements. Bismuth pellets are 22 percent denser than steel, delivering more energy downrange, and the cellulose over-powder wad minimizes plastic left in the field. Federal says the load is safe and effective in classic and modern shotguns. MSRP is $79.99 for a 25-round box. Visit federalpremium.com/shotshell/hi-bird or call 800-831-8100.
Plano recently unveiled its next evolution of the StowAway utility box series. Engineered for anglers, by anglers, the updated StowAway provides best-in-class organization, durability, and accessibility. To keep anglers more organized on the water, Plano incorporated pre-cut, rigid dividers for easy box setup that prevents tackle migration between compartments, as well as extra divider slots to efficiently organize tackle. The new StowAway includes a single-latch closure for one-handed access with a built-in labeling area to easily identify tackle. Rustrictor technology throughout the box helps prevent corrosion from damaging expensive tackle. The new StowAway is available in both standard and waterproof formats. Waterproof models have a Dri-Loc seal to protect tackle in wet conditions, and an ultra-clear, rigid lid that enhances both visibility and durability. New StowAways are available in 3700, 3600, and 3500 utility box sizes. MSRP depends on model and ranges from $7.99 to $19.99. Visit planooutdoors.com or call (800) 226-9868.
