Federal Ammunition congratulated Derrick Mein for winning the Super Sport event at the South Central Regional competition, which took place at Covey Rise Gun Club in Husser, Louisiana. The event, held from September 10-14, 2025, brought together 632 top shooters from across the country to compete in the National Sporting Clays Association (NSCA) South Central Regional Championship. Mein, a two-time Olympian, delivered an outstanding performance, securing the High Over All honors by hitting an impressive 96 out of 100 targets on a challenging course design. The Super Sport event is one of the most prestigious competitions within the NSCA, and Meins victory is a testament to his skill and experience in the sport. The competition was fierce, with nearly 500 shooters participating in the Super Sport event alone, but Mein stood out by consistently maintaining accuracy and precision throughout the challenging course. His win further solidifies his reputation as one of the top shooters in the world. In addition to his victory in the Super Sport event, Mein also claimed the Runner-Up position in the 5-Stand event, another key competition at the regional championship. The 5-Stand event had a strong field of nearly 360 competitors, and Meins impressive performance here further highlighted his versatility as a shooter. Mein attributes much of his continued success to the quality and reliability of the equipment he uses, specifically Federals Gold Medal Paper shotshells. These shells are known for their superior performance and consistency, with an exclusive paper hull design and high-antimony lead shot that ensure better uniformity in patterns. Meins dedication to using top-tier ammunition has contributed to his sustained success in competitive shooting, even when faced with challenging conditions and fierce competition. I contribute my continued success to the quality and consistency of the Federal Premium Gold Medal Papers that I rely on, Mein said after his victory. Even when Im not perfect, they are, and they help me break those few extra targets it takes to win. His trust in Federal Ammunition has played a critical role in helping him perform at the highest level, and its evident that the consistency and precision of the Gold Medal Paper shotshells are key factors in his competitive edge. As the NSCA season progresses, Meins success at the South Central Regional Championship positions him as a strong contender for the upcoming national events. His victory not only reflects his personal dedication and skill but also showcases the caliber of products that top athletes trust in their pursuit of excellence.
