The only Activ ammo I' ve ever seen was all plastic shotgun whells, almost everyone that was fired experienced a hull failure, from " head separation" to wall failures, miss fires, mouth shreading, etc....it was just all around crap...I don' t know why you' d seek it out?

Nomercy I used to shoot Activ all the time and never once had any kind of problem with it . What you described sounds more like the gun than the ammo .

I agree with halcon. I have shot a ton of Activ and never once had a problem. The 20 guage #6 was my favorite load, shot over a case of that with no problems. Sure wish Kent would come out with an Activ line.

I would have agreed with you guys that it was the gun, but it happened in three different guns all at the same time, maybe we got a bad batch or something, a buddy bought a case for us to use during a day at the range, we experienced really inconsistant failures (i.e. one round would split the hull, the next' s head would separate, the next would shred it' s mouth, the next would misfire, the next would hangfire-it wasn' t consistant for each gun even), it happened in my SxS, a buddies O/U, and another buddies pump-which was more problematic...we ran about a box through and MAYBE got 4rnds that didn' t fail. in fact, those were the only hangfires I' ve ever seen.
