AGC Ammo was the distributor. They are a Turkish shell BP? I don't recall exactly. The distributor is no longer importing them.

No longer importing those great shells? Have you sent any to be tested? Daryl has a 30" Parker 28 that should handle any shells you have left.

The shells were Rick Simmonds and I gave them back to him. They were returned to the vendor who said he sent them for testing. At the end of the day the shell manufacturer blamed the gun. It was NOT the gun.

Ha Ha Bill. Nothing goes through that baby other than my hand crafted reloads. Actually, that's all I shoot through all my guns no matter who made them.

I had a similar issue getting a 28 repro to open when shooting those.
