ANOKA, Minnesota - February 11, 2025 - Federal Ammunition congratulates sponsored shooters for successful finishes at the recent USA Shooting 2025 Shotgun Spring Selection Matches.
In Men’s Trap, Derrick Mein, a two-time Olympian, and Brian Burrows, 2020 Tokyo bronze medalist, were named to the National Men’s Trap Team following their event performances.
Vincent Hancock, four-time Olympic champion, won the Men’s Skeet Division. And due to his excellent performance at the match, Conner Prince, 2024 Paris Silver medalist, is now tied for the lead for World Championship Selections. Because these two shooters did not compete in the September qualification match, they are not eligible to make the National Men’s Skeet Team roster.
Caitlin Connor finished with a bronze in the Women’s Skeet Selection Match. And new to Team Federal, Ben Keller won the Junior Division for Skeet. These finishes earned Connor and Keller places on their respective 2025 U.S. National Skeet Teams.
The qualification matches took place January 22-26 for Trap and January 29-February 2 for Skeet, at the Palm Beach County Shooting Sports Complex in West Palm Beach, Florida. More than a hundred athletes from across the country competed to make a team or earn a medal. Competitors shot 250 targets in the qualification round, aiming to shoot scores that would land them in the finals.
Federal manufactures products in America for all competitive and recreational disciplines and is a top choice for competition shotgun shells, which includes High Over All, Gold Medal Paper, and new-for-2025 Federal Master Class.
Engineered for the most elite trap, skeet, and sporting clay shooters, Federal Premium High Over All leaves a trail of shattered targets in its wake and more reloads per shell. It’s hard, high-antimony lead payload produces the most consistent patterns, while the solid brass head and hull design make reloading easier than ever. It's the ultimate competition load for the world's best shooters.
The look, feel and performance of Gold Medal Paper shotshells have made them the favorite of the most serious clay target shooters. Now they're even better, thanks to a high-quality brass head, harder shot, and modern wad options.
Master Class is a new competition-level sporting clay load features a customized Podium wad that extracts peak performance from Federal’s straight-wall hull. Reliable primers, high-antimony lead shot and select propellant combine to break the most challenging targets.
