Got the new Kent catalog in the mail today. Their new product is faststeel 2.0. Looks like new primer, wad, powder and nickel plated head.

So that they have something in the $20-25 range also I’m guessing.

The box looks beautiful
Its still steel, so no
Plus the faster the load, the worse the pattern beyond 30 yards
I like 900 fps for lead and 1200-1400 max for non tox

Wasnt too pleased with my Faststeel this year. Been shooting it several years running now and first time I wasnt pleased with the performance.
Probably going to Heavy X. It was impressive to watch a few guys shoot it.
Double the price but I am predicting shooting 1/3 fewer shells each time. Possibly more.

Looks like they are combining the fast steel and silver steel together and having 1 load. I like the silver steel.
