Kent Cartridge is delighted to announce the introduction of Fasteel+, a specialized innovation specifically designed for the waterfowl hunting community. Expanding upon the well-received Fasteel 2.0 line, Fasteel+ offers a distinctive shotshell experience by incorporating two different sizes of steel pellets within a single shell. The standout characteristic of Fasteel+ lies in its utilization of a layered zinc-plated steel shot load, aimed at providing improved pattern density and enhanced impact on targets. The larger Precision-Plated Steel Shot pellets are positioned atop smaller pellets, guaranteeing tighter patterns and increased energy transfer to the target, resulting in efficient kills that quickly fulfill your tag count.

Kent Cartridge Unveils Fasteel+ 2.0: Ultra-High-Performance Shotshells
Kearneysville, WV — Kent Cartridge, a trusted manufacturer of superior shotgun ammunition for over 25 years, is pleased to introduce Fasteel®+, an innovative, hard-hitting shotshell line for waterfowlers. Building on the legacy of the wildly popular Fasteel 2.0 line, Fasteel + uses two sizes of steel pellets in one shell to deliver unsurpassed patterns with devastating on-target lethality.
The layered-shot payload in Fasteel + consists of a layer of larger Precision-Plated Steel™ Shot pellets loaded on top of a layer of smaller pellets. Aerodynamic testing shows the smaller shot drafts in the wake of the larger shot, tightening patterns and delivering more energy into the target. Zinc-plated pellets team with nickel-plated heads to resist corrosion and make Fasteel+ a true all-weather performer. Custom-blended powders ensure reliable ignition and outstanding velocities, no matter what conditions you hunt in.
Kent Cartridge’s Vice President of Sales and Marketing, Jeff Barry, is excited about the performance of Fasteel +. “Now hunters can have the best of both worlds, energy from the larger pellets and pattern density from the smaller pellets,” Mr. Barry remarked. “Hunters will see a difference in lethality right away, all while maintaining the premium performance and affordable prices Kent Cartridge has long been known for.”
Fasteel + is shipping to dealers nationwide now. Available loads include:
o 12ga. 3” 1-1/4oz. 1,450 fps – BBx2, 2×4 and 4×6
o 20ga. 3” 1 oz. 1,350 fps – 2×4 and 4×6
o 25 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case
Featuring a design that resists corrosion and exhibits unwavering performance in all weather conditions, Fasteel+ shells offer the confidence required to alleviate any worries about ammunition reliability during waterfowl hunting in usual conditions.
