I have had nothing but good results from Polywad ammuniton and components over the last twenty five years.

I had the same problem Larry did with Gun Club twenty gauge; one or two in a box would not fire in a S&W Gold Elite. The primers were only slightly dented. On measurement, the gun had slighly deeper rim cuts than other twentys I've measured. It functioned perfectly with other promo loads including Winchester and Federal. No problem either with other Remingtons or B&P. On further examination, the problem was with the ammuntion; the rim thickness was thiner on those that did'nt fire.

Manufacturers have to make firearm chambers, rim-cuts, etc., to some kind of average tolerance. I'm guessing that's probably why the Blaser F3 had problems when it first appeared in the US; the rim-cut was made for average Euro ammuntion dimensions and was too deep for some American ammuntion.

Good shooting,

C.
