Massena, New York – Most shooters struggle with the punishing effects of recoil, which is why FalconStrike created a recoil reduction pad that utilizes hydraulic dampening technology borrowed from the aerospace industry that dramatically reduces recoil to give hunters and shooters greater accuracy, less flinching, and more shooting endurance.

“We are delighted that so many shooters who struggle with the punishing effects of recoil (since our launch) have left us great reviews and comments. Our hydraulic recoil pad helps any shooter looking to tame large caliber rifles or those who want to increase accuracy and endurance when shooting clays,” says Martin Gaudet, president and inventor of FalconStrike.

The new Krieghoff K-80 Parcours-X makes its debut before an audience of over 1,000 Sporting Clays and FITASC shooters competing in the 2020 NSCA Sporting Clays National Championships.

The Parcours-X takes Krieghoff’s most popular model to a new level by offering shooters a weight option between the original Parcours and the standard K-80 Sporting model. Fitted with the newly introduced Krieghoff Thin Wall chokes, the Parcours-X barrel features a 32” length and tapered flat rib.

“Our dealers give us the most valuable feedback on what the market is looking for,” says Nick Boerboon Krieghoff International Sales Manager. “In response, we designed a Parcours model that gives shooters a bit more weight in their hands for a smoother swinging option on the robust K-80 frame.”

Scheduled as a 2021 full production model, the Parcours-X makes its first appearance in demo form offering shooters a chance to try out the new model before it hits the market. “We invite everyone to stop by the Krieghoff Demo tent at the National Shooting Complex, and see what the new Parcours-X has to offer,” says Boerboon.
