From Kent® Cartridge:
For over 20 years Kent® Cartridge has produced the Fasteel® line of steel shot waterfowl loads that are a favorite with many waterfowl hunters all over North America. Known for its high-velocities and ultra-reliable performance in all weather conditions at a reasonable price, Fasteel non-toxic shells can be found in most popular sporting goods stores.
For 2019 Kent is upgrading the line with the introduction of the new Fasteel 2.0 Precision Plated Steel™ line of non-toxic shotshells. The foundation of Fasteel® 2.0 begins with a high-performance base-wad to optimize functioning in today’s most popular semi-auto firearms, allowing for fast follow-up shots and ensuring consistent reliability.
The new loads from Kent use zinc-plated shot and nickel-plated heads to provide added corrosion protection from the elements. In addition, improvements in powder technologies have allowed for increased speeds on select loads, while maintaining pattern uniformity and managed recoil. Custom blended, low-flash powders provide consistent, clean-burning performance and maintain SAAMI standards for pressure and velocity across the temperature spectrum.
No matter where your hunt takes you, or the conditions, Kent Fasteel 2.0 is sure to deliver unrivaled performance and consistency in the field.
