WTB Activ Penetrator turkey loads

Im going to try this again, Im looking for some Activ Penetrator turkey loads, in 3 inch 12 gauge, in 4,5 or 6 shot or the duplex with a 4/6 mix. I have shot these in several of my turkey guns, and haveunfortunately shot the last one. They have shot great out of every gun Ive tried them in. I tried last year and one guy even posted a pic of 3 boxes of them, and then wouldnt reply to any emails or pms I sent about buying them. If you have any or know where there are any let me know I will buy them, they evidently dont make them anymore, and Id really like to find a few more boxes. Thanks

maytom.. Ive never shot the Kent shells, are they good loads? The Activs Im looking for have 2 1/4 oz of shot in the 3 inch shell. lots of lead. I may have to look into the Kent shells, but dont know if they will compete with the Activ. Thanks

Angus74, Kent is the company that bought out Activ, many years ago. If you check their site, they mention that somewhere. I think you may be out of luck on those 2 1/4oz 3" loads.I use to shoot those in #5 shot myself years ago before switching to the Winchester HV lead loads, at that time. Good luck in your quest.

Had a friend that shoot them a few years back... Every time he sot them I could see the shoot flying threw the air... 3" shell with 2.25oz's of lead... Call me crazy but wouldn't you think that just maybe they hold something out for that load to fit... LIKE POWDER[:-]
