In this episode of Save it for the Blind, hosts Jeff Smith and Carson Odegard sit down with Joshua Vickers, Shotshell Product Line Manager at Federal Ammunition, to dig into the latest innovations in waterfowl ammo—starting with the highly anticipated ULTRASTEEL.
Joshua breaks down what makes ULTRASTEEL unique, from its design process and field performance to how it stacks up against Federal’s other heavy hitters like Speed Shok and BlackCloud. Whether you’re shooting over rice, timber, or open water, you’ll hear when and why this load shines.
The conversation also explores the rise of sub-gauge popularity—with insights on 16 and 28 gauge performance, TSS patterns, and how bismuth is changing the game for both upland and waterfowl crossover hunters. They unpack who’s really driving the trend (hint: it’s not just the kids), and how Federal is balancing cutting-edge innovation with affordability in a shifting market.
If you’ve been curious about new loads, gauge setups, or want to get the inside scoop on what’s coming down the pipe from Federal, this one’s for you.
