\"AATracker\"
\nEAST ALTON, Ill. (Feb. 18, 2014) \u2014 In 2014, Winchester\u00ae Ammunition will extend its AA\u00ae TrAAcker\u2122 shotshell line into the popular sporting clays offerings of 12 and 20 gauge. This provides more options to consumers to assist shooters in identifying where and why they\u2019re missing their targets. During this process, shooters and instructors are able to visibly see where they are missing with the AA TrAAcker technology, and can easily make adjustments to correct it.<\/p>\n

Legendary innovation at Winchester Ammunition continues with the award winning AA\u00ae TrAAcker\u2122, the first game and target load to feature a weighted wad that actually tracks with the shot string. This allows the shooter or an instructor to quickly determine where the shooter is missing \u2013 making it easy to adjust and hit flying targets shot after shot.<\/p>\n

\u201cA new shooter now can learn how to lead a clay target or game bird almost immediately \u2013 that\u2019s the results you get with AA TrAAcker,\u201d said Brett Flaugher, Winchester Ammunition vice president of marketing, sales and strategy. \u201cNow we\u2019ve made it more versatile by offering the AA TrAAcker in 20 gauge, not just 12 gauge. It continues to be a great training tool for shooters, hunters, and shooting instructors, especially when youth or beginning shooters are learning every aspect of the sport.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"AATracker2\"The secret of AA TrAAcker is in the revolutionary wad. Loaded with 1 1\/8 oz. of shot for 12 gauge and 7\/8 oz. of shot for 20 gauge like a standard AA shotshell, the innovative wad design includes longer, notched petals, and captures a portion of shot, which stabilizes wad spin and ensures that the wad remains in the center of the shot cloud for optimum tracking. The AA TrAAcker load is available in two highly visible colors: orange, for overcast conditions or dark backdrop; and black for clear skies or light backdrops.<\/p>\n
