I’m down to the end of my RGL’s in stock and my factory ammo is all hunting so I’m not replacing the stock at a speed I’m happy with. I was interested in 100 to 500. Obviously, I’m not seeking the recent Federal made models.
I’ve not had any Activ in a long time, but figured I’d ask. |

Here is a posting with pictures:

I remember reading somewhere the company got bought and still makes ammo but primarily in the South American market.
They primarily were loaded with SG16 wads, though the larger payloads might have used the infamous Ched 1632’s. |

They’re a shot shell with no brass or steel on the hull, so the exterior of the hull is all plastic. There’s a metal disc imbedded in the plastic rim of the case, to provide strength for extraction and ejection. An interesting concept that apparently did not catch on. I have a few dozen of those cases in 16 ga. |

As I mentioned still going in Argentina. Apparently, they are 1 or 2 major brands used for the big dove hunts down there.
Be nice, now that their government and ours seems to have a growing relationship to see these imported, or at least the components 😂 |

I think between AM and Cass I will have acquired enough Remmies to keep me going for a while more.
Thank you everyone for your support. |
