Winchester® Ammunition launches ecological shot cartridges, E-Tech™

EAST ALTON, IL (February 2, 2023) — Winchester Ammunition continues its tradition of innovation with the launch of an eco-friendly shotshell, E-Tech, which uses wads made from certified home-compostable biopolymers.

Loaded with BioAmmo’s one-piece 4-petal pellet wad, the E-Tech is an excellent choice for those who want to limit the use of plastics. Over time, these plant-based tacos will degrade into natural elements. Reducing a shooter’s impact on the environment doesn’t mean sacrificing performance. Bio-polymer studs have been extensively engineered to match the performance of traditional plastic components for reliable and effective on-target performance.

Offered in 12 gauge #7.5 lead shot and #6 steel shot, E-Tech shotshells will meet your recreational, competition or hunting needs.

About caring for gun owners

Gun owners care. You worry about safety. You care about preventing unauthorized access to firearms. You care about improving your community, helping those in need, and conserving wildlife and wild places for generations to come. It’s time for gun owners to tell their stories and show how they’re making a difference. NSSF®, the trade association for the firearms industry, has established the Gun Owners Care campaign to unite gun owners and the firearms industry in this common cause.
