2023 SHOT Show Products for this Spring

While SHOT Show, the nation's largest trade show for the sport shooting, hunting and outdoor industry, is not open to the public, we were fortunate enough to attend and be able to scout out some new products.

There were quite a few of our loyal NWTF partners in attendance who were eager to share their new-for-2023 products, but we also scouted some non-turkey-centric gear that could come in handy this spring.

HEVI-Shot has several new offerings this spring. These additions include HEVI-18, Magnum Blend, HEVI-Bismuth Upland, and HEVI-Hammer Upland & Dove product lines. HEVI-18 TSS brings best-in-class performance to the turkey market with 18 g/cc density pellets in No. 7 and 9 shot. The loads provide high pellet counts, long-range lethality and incredibly tight patterns thanks to the friction-free, sealed-in-the-shell spherical buffer. New loads are now available in reduced-recoil 12- and 20-gauge loads, as well as 28 gauge. Like the original HEVI-Shot load, Magnum Blend offers three shot sizes (5, 6 and 7) in a single shell. The 12 g/cc cast tungsten lets you drop one shot size from lead for the same lethality. These heavy loads really pack some punch — 437 deadly pellets in a single 12-gauge, 3-inch shell. New loads are now available in 3-inch 28 gauge.

Primos is introducing the Rare Breed Aluminum Pot Call. From its successful line of Rare Breed glass pot calls, the new aluminum model offers hunters and more durable option out in the rugged woods. These calls are crafted with the same musical-grade hardwood as turkey hunters expect, but offer the ability to produce higher yelps, cuts and clucks, but can also produce a wide range of other authentic turkey sounds. For mouth call users, Primos has expanded their Select Series of calls with the introduction of the PS5 diaphragm call. This call traces its design back to the classic calls the Primos team has been using for decades. Primos also is introducing upgrades to many of their other tried-and-true products like shooting sticks, bi-pods and many others.
