Extreme Shock Adds New SRT and CT-2 .223 Ammo
7/7/09
<table align="right"><tbody><tr><td>
</td></tr></tbody></table>CLINTWOOD, VIRGINIA - Extreme Shock Ammunition, known for producing the world's most advanced ammunition, has added the .223 100 grain Short Ranged Tactical (SRT) to its impressive line of hunting and tactical ammo. This specific round was engineered for Close Quarters Combat (CQB) applications and training purposes.
The SRT's 100 grain projectile is a frangible, lead-free design that will fragment on harder surfaces that would typically cause a lead-core bullet to ricochet. This projectile consists of a compressed tungsten powder core that is encased in a high quality copper jacket, with a special DuPont coating to reduce the velocity. This all works to produce lower recoil and minimize muzzle flash, thus enhancing the ability to acquire second shot placement faster. The dense tungsten core allows it to penetrate less dense materials with ease, while still remaining frangible. The velocity of this design allows it to travel slow enough to penetrate windshields without deflection, yet fast enough to still fragment inside a soft target. With 745 ft. lbs. of energy combined with a 100% kinetic energy drop (which is an advantage over the over-penetration of lead-core munitions), this round is the safest yet most lethal CQB/Training round manufactured anywhere in the world today.
The 100 grain SRT has an MSRP of $41.27 for a 20 round box.

Extreme Shock Ammunition's "Green" 223 55 CT-2
CLINTWOOD, VA - Extreme Shock Ammunition, known for producing the world's most advanced ammunition, has added the .223 55 grain CT-2 (Copper Training/Tactical) to its innovative line of lead free, environmentally friendly, or "green," ammo. This round was engineered for tactical and training purposes.
The 223 55 CT-2 is specifically engineered to offer all the same desirable characteristics of Extreme Shock's compressed Tungsten core ammunition. The CT-2 is the economical solution to a Firing Range's lead nightmare. This round will allow ranges to operate on expensive target steel without fear of steel damage or injury from ricochet. The CT-2 projectile consists of a patented compressed copper powder blend of the highest quality. Each round is encased in a copper jacket and topped with a green ballistic tip to aid in fragmentation and identification. Loaded to safe SAAMI pressure specifications, the CT-2 is safer for use in firearms than other brands of frangible or training ammunition.
The 55 grain CT-2 is available in a 20 round box with an MSRP of $20.18 as well as a 6 round blister pack with an MSRP of $6.05.
