Winchester Collaborates with Ducks Unlimited, Bass Pro Shops, and Richard Childress Racing for Xfinity 500 NASCAR Cup Series Race

Winchester celebrates Ducks Unlimited and conservation alongside Bass Pro Shops on the No. 3 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet with a waterfowl-themed paint scheme. Hunters, conservationists, and NASCAR fans can watch the No. 3 take the track on Sunday, November 1, at Martinsville Speedway in Ridgeway, VA. Tune into NBC, stream on HBO Max, or listen to the race on MRN or SiriusXM NASCAR Radio Channel 90.

"Winchester is proud to feature Ducks Unlimited on the No. 3 car," said Jason Gilbertson, Senior Director of Marketing for Winchester Ammunition. "Showcasing Ducks Unlimited on the track is a meaningful way to celebrate the incredible impact the organization has had across North America protecting critical habitats and supporting healthy waterfowl populations."

Winchester serves as the Official Ammunition of Ducks Unlimited. Over the last 30 years, Winchester has maintained a vital partnership with DU, providing critical funding and support for wetlands conservation that helps ensure the future of waterfowl and their habitat. Every box of Winchester waterfowl ammunition proudly showcases the DU logo and promotes its mission.

"Ducks Unlimited is excited to be featured on the No. 3 Chevrolet along with longtime partners Winchester and Bass Pro Shops," said Jeremy Smith, Senior Director of Corporate Relations at Ducks Unlimited. "This is an excellent opportunity to bring attention to the impact hunters and sportsmen have on conserving wetlands and waterfowl habitat."

"I love the outdoors, hunting and fishing, so to put all these brands together on one car is pretty special," said Austin Dillon, driver of the No. 3 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet. "I think all the outdoorsmen will really take notice, especially when you put the No. 3 on a short track. We just need to go out there and have a great race. I am proud to represent a bunch of great conservationists, and we need to do our part to give back to the outdoors for the future."
