“We’re very thankful to have Winchester Ammunition join the growing sponsor list for our third golf outing in support of HAVA,” said Chris Dolnack, NSSF Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer. “It’s very rewarding to have a company with such a rich history with American firearms owners support the veterans who fight to continue that history.”
