Should I be concerned?

[Sted-E Ed-E]

I bought what I thought was the same box of cheap Russian buckshot at 2 different Academy’s. The first box looked good but the second box has low brass, with some funky looking propellant showing. Should I be worried about shooting em? Or any more worried than any time shooting Russian ammunition that is lol.

1/100 of a penny times 1 million rounds means extra profit. Err, I mean a new car for the ceo.

I don't know if anyone has had this problem, but my Remington 870 pump action does not like low brass. It will fail to eject them and jambs in the chamber. When I say low brass it has been when they have a steel or some sort of alloy base. High brass has never been a problem. I've had to disassemble to remove the shot shell after firing.

I’d send them an email. The brass length is just for identification,but there could be a component mix up from the factory

I thought about it, but emailing some Russian company doesn’t seem worth it haha.

I think I figured it out. It’s 2021 and these shells identify as low brass shells, so they got a sex change!
