[QUOTE="Trip McNeely, post: 270733, member: 728"] How can the situations you have described be pinned on the ammo? Sounds more like lack of keeping the ammo dry and I would assume would cause failures of any ammo brand? Just so happens more people shoot cheaper loads, therefore it is more likely an incident would occur with it? Not? I keep my ammo dry in the event it gets wet it gets air-dried. If i find a rusted shell I wont shoot it for the reasons mentioned above. So far never had a problem. As to the price. 7.49-9.99 vs. 12.99 in my opinion isnt in the same ballpark. 17-30% cheaper? 99 a case vs. 129. Multiply that by 5 case and pretty soon you are down another 150. I shoot into January also. Again not trying to sway anyones opinion just giving mine. Ive got 15-25 year old 870s. 3 of them to be exact. Only issue ive had is the xpert steel metal was too thin where my ejector pin was ripping through the brass instead of grabbing it. My M2 doesnt like xperts as well either. Blue-steel shoots best through it but Rio works well enough for me. Keep selling to the sitka crowd I could care less but your development and marketing team would be blind to not recognize the economical market in the shotshell world. Like I stated to each their own but until you put a product not “in the ballpark” but run it at 9.99-10.99 I will keep my money going where it is currently going. [/QUOTE]
