Default Pickiest rant of the season

I bought a couple of flats of the Fiocchi Target Max shells, the most inexpensive I could find. I like the shells just fine but Fiocchi must have searched the globe for the flimsiest boxes they could find! The durned things open if you barely touch them, and at either end. After having to refill about half the boxes in the first flat I turned them all sideways when I opened the next flat so I'd grab top and bottom when I picked them up, but still, by the time I got them from the carton to my shell bag I had dumped three boxes - one on the ground, one in my range bag and one trying to get it into my belt pouch at the range.

Went to Scheels today hoping that something else would be just as cheap; luckily the Federal Top Guns were actually cheaper. If I have to buy the Fiocchi's again I'm gonna have to tape the bottoms shut; at least I can cut the chance of dumping them by 50%.
