2026 SHOT SHOW releases

Already being done, NAS3 cases are being run by Shell Shock now.
Cool. I hope to see them at SHOT. Is there an AR rifle with that chambering that can benefit from high pressure ammo without breaking bolts? Does it feed from a properly engineered magazine?

No idea on that one. It's probably possible to closely calculate bolt thrust, the coefficient of friction is probably very near steel-steel.
 
I’d also like to see Ruger come out with a 3” SP101 Wiley Clapp edition in 327 Federal Magnum.
 
I'm hoping Vortex, Maven or Leupold release that first. Sig's warranty sucks. If you drop them/scratch them, they cannot repair them even for a fee. Infinite warranty only covers failure of mechanical/electrical, not accidental and they don't make their units so don't have an ability to repair them.

I own two Zulu6's and the 10k Gen2's but I'm looking for a way out of Sig due to this.
I know maven is releasing rangefinding binos soon but don’t know about stabilization though
 
Feels like we would have heard by now if Federal was releasing any other "Backcountry" calibers
I spoke with federal rep last weekend in Dallas, Tx at the trophy hunter expo. He mentioned them working on a 140gr 6.5mm terminal ascent bullet. Which would venture me to believe that a new backcountry catridge is in the works. He said they don’t want to release too soon until they have it really fleshed out

Now as far as what I would love to see
- maven’s range finding binos w/ ballistics
- a new federal cartridge in the peak alloy
I’m sold on the tech and buying a 7BC this year after watching it work itself out.
-would love to see Tikka chamber the 7BC

What has my interest peaked
-The cheap suppressors that are hitting the market.
- savages new 110 line of rifles. They updated their action and extractors which is a win overall. The new stocks have improved ergos but weights are on the heavier which isn’t the end of the world.
 
I fully expect every single company at shot show to now suddenly be in “the suppressor space.”

I foresee a lot of companies doing the absolute minimum r/d necessary to bring something to market, in order to capture market share.
