S P O R T I N G C L A S S I C S 1 7 7 winChester ammunition In 1965 workers completed the St. Louis Gateway Arch, the New York Jets drafted Joe Namath, and President Lyndon Johnson signed the Great Society into law. For the shooting industry, the AA shotshell first took flight that year from the Winchester Ammunition engineering labs with a design that featured a highly reloadable plastic hull that offered consistent performance and gave shooters confidence in every shot they made. At the time it was dubbed the "ultimate target load." Winchester is now celebrating the 50th Anniversary of its AA shotshell with a commemorative wood box that contains ten boxes of AA 12-gauge 1 1 /8-ounce number 8 shot—a favorite for trap, skeet, and sporting clays enthusiasts. These distinctive, commemorative boxes are available where Winchester shotshells are sold. Visit www.winchester.com. rugged gear
