heads-up ** Spartan 12 ga. buckshot ( **** ) **

[reloaderman1]

Has anybody had any kind of luck with this ammo!!
** I tried 2 of their 12 ga. buck in a Stoger Coach Gun and after firing, I could NOT open the gun!! I had to 'brake' it over my knee to get it open. Went back to some bird shot and everything worked fine! I try another 2 buck shot and the same thing, the gun won't open without a lot of muscle ! Back to some other ammo and everything is fine. O.K., this time I'll try only one buck shot, again the gun won't open with out a real struggle!!
I gave up on this ****, and won't buy anything from Spartan Guns and Ammo! I can only imagine what their other products are like, and I never will!
So far no response to the e-mail I sent!**
It's made in the European Union!
If you see it ............ leave it be, pick something else !!!!

Haven't heard anything good or bad about this stuff, could be that their particular buckshot does not work well with your particular shotgun. Or it could be their products are junk. ID like to see others experience with this spartan ammo

Have you tried other buckshot loads in the gun since trying the spartans??

Sounds like it is really stout stuff or it has soft primers- causing the firing pins to get stuck in the primers.
