RE: activ loads

I shot those 3" shells that had 2 1/4oz of shot. At 40 yards the pellets would not come threw the other side of a card board box.

I'll stick with the Hevi shot loads i have!!!!

RE: activ loads

Man I loved Activ shells. There was nothing better for grouse hunting in my 20guage pump. Sadly though they were bought out by Kent Cartridge Company.

I have heard they make some really good loads, I need to get some of their Turkey diamond loads to try out....
