Product information "BIOAMMO GAME STEEL"
BioAmmo is the first and only shotgun cartridge with a 100% biodegradable wad and casing. As you are undoubtedly aware, hunters and land managers fire millions of plastic wads into nature each year. After being fired, these wads are almost impossible to retrieve, leaving them behind in forests, grain fields, meadows, and rivers. The wads fired 50 years ago are still present today and will remain there for another 500 years.
The Netherlands has approximately 28,000 hunters. Assuming the absolute minimum—each hunter firing an average of 50 cartridges per year—this amounts to 1,400,000 plastic wads left in nature annually. That’s nearly one and a half million wads every year. Although empty casings are typically collected, they contribute to waste elsewhere. Including target shooters, the total number of cartridges fired amounts to tens of millions.
However, this doesn’t have to be the case. BioAmmo cartridges are entirely free of plastic in both wads and casings. In fact, as the only ammunition manufacturer, BioAmmo can provide an international certificate of compostability. This demonstrates that the hunting and shooting sports sector is taking the initiative to solve both problems. Following the transition from lead to steel shot, hunters can now take the final environmentally friendly step: ensuring no plastic remains in our precious natural environment after each shot. For this reason, BioAmmo promotes the message: ‘Harvest wildlife without sowing plastic.’
BIOAMMO's GAME cartridges are distinguished by their high velocity, effective lethality, consistent patterning, and maximum comfort. Shooters can choose from three types of shot: lead, steel, or alloy. Each component is meticulously designed and selected for its specific application, incorporating elements such as nine varieties of fully compostable wads and premium double-based powders sourced from the United States during the assembly process.
The company employs advanced, state-of-the-art machinery and enforces rigorous quality controls, ensuring exceptional consistency in manufacturing and loading.
