Maybe its my gun.....but i get alot of cripples with them.....don't have that problem with kents

I shot Kents yesterday and 0 lost birds for me.

I shot Sureshots on sat. and i lost 3 cripples.

Everytime i have shot kents this year i have not lost a single bird.....shot Sureshots 3 times this year and have lost cripples every hunt.

Ive had she same problem with the remington.I stopped by bucks fins and feathers in broussard the other day and bought a box of fiochi shells i think they were.Boy did them fellas sell me some trash two miss fires out of seven.One of those misfires being on a buffle head drake.I used them for rocks after that never buying anything other than estates again

[Shawn Braquet]

im all about kents, usually buy two cases a year, the dog will thank you for not having to chase as many birds

[I make oil]

I like the Win drylocks and Federal Black Cloud. Kinda expensive but worth it.

seen estates do the same thing you just described

All I shoot is Kents and never a problem . Estate and Remington Sportsman had misfires which almost caused a blown out barrel. Winchester is good but not as fast as the Kents. You can get Kents 3 1/2s on line from Dunn's Sporting Goods for 159 a case with free shipping. WWW.ShopDunns.com

Marshboy, you hunting down in the parish? Looks similar to where I used to hunt.


I shot Estates for many years with no issues. They killed a lot better than the Rem. and Win. shells. And were half the price. I was hesitant at first cause they were generic looking shells, and rusted easy.

This is our first year hunting this spot, but its the first wood ducks we have seen all year. 3 of them came out of nowhere and sat in the decoys.....we have seen and heard some everyday since also.
