Federal, CCI Return as Sponsors of the Scholastic Action Shooting Program and SASP National Championships

Federal and CCI Ammunition recently announced their sponsorship of the Scholastic Action Shooting Program for 2019 and sponsorship of the SASP National Championships July 13-20 at the Cardinal Shooting Center in Marengo, Ohio for 2019 as well. Federal is a SASP Platinum Sponsor for 2019.

“We are happy to become more involved within the exciting world of action shooting, especially with an organization that offers a level playing field across genders and age,” said Jon Zinnel from Federal’s Industry and Government Relations Team. “Federal and CCI are dedicated to support such a fast-growing organization that is building up the action steel shooting experience. SASP has a great training program that allows novice shooters the chance to participate in a rapidly growing sport and develop the skills needed to excel.”

Rick Leach, SASP National Director stated” We are thrilled to have Federal and CCI as a Platinum Sponsor of SASP. We are looking forward to continue working with them to promote their ammunition brands to our teams.”

Federal and CCI’s dedication to conservation and their support of programs that help develop the next generation of American shooters is second to none. Their reliable, accurate and high-performing ammunition help competitors perform at their best.

Mini-Mag was CCI’s first 22 LR load and it’s still one of the most popular, offering unbeatable accuracy, high velocities, flat trajectories and superior reliability. The ammunition features CCI’s extremely reliable priming and specialized powders for clean, consistent ignition. It is also reliable to feed, flat shooting and highly accurate to maximize effective range.

Federal Syntech Range ammunition keeps guns cleaner, longer. It features a polymer-encapsulated bullet that prevents copper and lead fouling. It’s also combined with specialized clean-burning powder and the exclusive Catalyst lead-free primer. Its Total Synthetic Jacket (TSJ) creates less splash-back on steel targets for a smoother, safer shooting experience. Syntech is available in a variety of cartridge options.
