Beginning in 1996 as a small group of sportsmen discussing the future of shotgunning, Kent Cartridge is now an international cartridge company. In 1997, Kent purchased the Activ Cartridge factory in Kearneysville, West Virginia. This gave Kent a home base in the heart of wild and wonderful West Virginia. In 1998 Kent expanded to Europe with the acquisition of the Gamebore Cartridge Company in Hull, England. The Kent-Gamebore Corporation was then formed and now carries on business throughout North America and around the world. The goal was simple, develop a non-toxic shotshell that would equal, and possibly exceed, the performance of high quality lead waterfowl loads. Constantly evolving and leading with proven performance and innovation, Kent products continue to set the benchmark.

Consistent patterning, balanced shot string, less recoil, superior penetration and retained energy. It all adds up to how your day ends. The discerning shooter knows that not just any off-the-shelf cartridge is acceptable for their cherished fine-grade shotgun.  The purist and traditional shooter can experience authentic paper hulls and fiber wads while enjoying the modern day performance of a Kent Gamebore shotshell. Pure Gold F2 is available in a true 2 1/2″ case specially designed for old English guns. The performance of Pure Gold is second to none. This is a premium game shell that won’t disappoint. Pure Gold is available with fibre wads and Diamond Shot. Diamond Shot is a process that results in highly polished lead. Tested against standard lead shot it has resulted in better penetration and patterning.

Winchester Shotshells feature high velocities for hard hitting performance on all types of game. Each load is specially formulated for maximum velocity, density and consistency. Designed specifically for rifled barrels.

Winchester Double X Magnum ammunition delivers superior buckshot performance and stopping power sure to bring down the toughest game. Featuring high velocities for hard hitting performance on all types of game, each load is specially formulated for maximum density and consistency.

Fiocchi Game and Target loads were developed as high quality, promotional grade shotshells for the high-volume shooter. Unlike many competitors’ promotional grade shotshells, Fiocchi loads feature a brass-based hull which allows for more consistent and reliable feeding and extraction. A one-piece shot cup, cushioned wads, and round, first rate chilled lead shot helps deliver more shell for your dollar. The clean burning powder loaded in Fiocchi shotshells is sure to deliver reliable performance time and time again.

Where are Fiocchi products made?
While most of Fiocchi ammunition is loaded at their plant in Ozark, Missouri, Fiocchi is also importing ammunition and reloading components from their plant in Italy because of the high demand the industry has been experiencing. All products are loaded to either C.I.P. or SAAMI specifications.
