Saw these shells somewhere on the internet and wondered if anyone had any shooting experience with this shell. Its supposed to be loaded with #5 non tox and #5 lead. Ive shot their fast lead before in a 2 3/4'' #5 squirrel hunting and had good luck with them. I also did a search for them and saw that not many people are carrying them, I guess due to them being new product. If I can find a box Im going to buy them.
I have some of there straight 5 Impact Matrix tungeston for duck hunting. I have patterned it through turkey chokes. It does Ok.
I know it hammers ducks.....way further than steel.
I would try it if they made this ammunition in a blend of 6's rather than 5's. Although a #6 blend would wouldn't make sense if it was named Fivestar :bike2:
keep us posted ive seen it in turkey and turkey hunting magazine along with the hornady stuff really want to try myself
Sounds like they borrowed the name from the old Activ shells. Curious how this one performs.

Yep...now they need to cram 2 1/4 ounces of it in there!!!
interesting
Kent is the old Active company.
I'd like to try those 3 1/2 2 1/4's they have, nobody carries them though.
