Beginning in early 2026, all new products will be available at independent dealers, major retail sporting goods stores, farm and home stores and their websites.

“We spent 2024 and early 2025 listening to the valuable feedback of our customers and consumers. Barnes has developed more ammunition offerings and families aligned to market demands as we continue expanding our brand globally and provide options for hunters and competitors,” said Andrew Sparks, VP of Marketing & Business Development.

Suppressor Series™

The Barnes Suppressor Series ™ is a purpose-built ammunition line engineered for the explosive growth in suppressor ownership, featuring premium Sierra projectiles loaded to Barnes’ exacting standards. The initial subsonic loads utilize clean-burning propellants to reduce gas blowback, improve cycling in semi-auto platforms and deliver noticeably quieter shots through suppressor-ready firearms.

Optimized load development and purpose-built projectiles ensure exceptional performance and precision—even at subsonic velocities. The lineup includes a 300 BLK 205gr Sierra GameKing designed to expand reliably, providing hunters with a true subsonic option for consistent, dependable terminal results.

SIGHTRON Announces New S6 10-60×56 ED Field Target Riflescope is Now Shipping

SIGHTRON, one of the world’s most innovative optical observation and aiming device companies, is pleased to announce the long awaited S6 10-60×56 ED Field Target riflescope is now shipping. The S6 field target scope is premium choice for airgun, small caliber field target and benchrest shooters.

At the core of the riflescope are 15 meticulously crafted Japanese optical-grade glass lenses. The scope includes two Extra-low Dispersion elements that are precisely positioned within the objective to boost optical resolution by 55%*. This means everything is clearer, crisper, and sharper edge-to-edge. Now, you’ll see those shots on target like never before and avoid hitting the same target twice.

Watch, Learn and Support Birds with Project FeederWatch

If you’re an avid wildlife watcher but prefer a perch from the warmth and comfort of indoors, give Project FeederWatch a try. With Michigan temps predicted to stay fairly frigid, it may be the coziest way to connect with nature – and collect helpful birding data.

A November-April survey of birds that visit backyards, nature centers, community areas and other locales in North America, Project FeederWatch is headed up by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and Birds Canada. People of all ages and skill levels are invited to help: children, families, solo seekers, classrooms, retirees, youth groups, nature centers and bird clubs.

While most people focus on birds coming to feeding stations, DNR wildlife biologist Karen Cleveland said a feeder isn’t a necessity.

“The only requirement is having an area from which you like to watch birds; the location and setting are entirely up to you,” she said. “The schedule is flexible, too. Count the birds you see every week or once all winter. You choose how much time you put into it.” Read more

But ultimately, Kelbly’s combination of high-end components, benchmark accuracy potential, and a heritage rooted in world-record performance carried the day. Read more
