Anoka, MN based Federal Ammunition recently announced a new style of range ammo. Meet American Eagle Syntech, evidently available in centerfire rifle, handgun and rimfire in a variety of calibers, bullet styles and grain weights.

Here’s what they told us about it.

American Eagle Syntech Ammunition

American Eagle Syntech is the first range-specific ammunition designed to reduce fouling and extend barrel life with a high-tech polymer bullet coating. Combined with specialized clean-burning powders, your gun will stay cleaner, longer, so you can shoot more—and shoot better. The exclusive Catalyst™ primer provides the most reliable, consistent ignition possible. The Syntech system offers target shooters the most advanced range ammunition available and the perfect way for handgun owners to protect their investment from the inside out.
