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.

Probably so. Don’t know if they’re discontinuing the original faststeel or not. They stopped production of silver steel. Not really enthused about this.

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

Honestly, do ringers even care what you shoot at them?

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.

The Beav spends big money on those high dollar shells to kill those tank turds, stop pounding the Beav!

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