Longbeard xr problem

[WORM82]

After killing my gobbler this morning I was unloading my gun and one of the shells had came apart when I shot I'm guessing. It was fine when I loaded the gun. I noticed stuff falling out of my reciever and looked at the shell, the end/crimp was completely gone and you can see the resin and shot. I'm glad I didn't need a follow up shot. I know TN Lead had some that sounded loose when you shook the shell but has anyone ever seen this?

Never see one just straight up fall apart. I've heard the shot be loose before.

I've saw pictures of others who have had that problem on oldgobbler
I wish they would use a solid shot card instead of the pre cut one

That's not cool and enough for me to not trust them. Hopefully this is a one time occurence and won't become the norm. I'd send Winchester an email with the photo attached so they have it documented, and maybe they'll send you a free box of shells.

The crimp isn't a crimp it's a separate piece of plastic. My double X shells will sometimes rattle a bit when I shake them but they don't fall apart and they shoot good.

Yep my brother had 3 to do that this year he would find one like that in the tube after each time he shot..

Had same problem also, I will just stick to my hevi shot. The new triple beards by hevi shot are cheaper an shoot just as well as the blend.

Another reason I handload, if I have a problem it's my fault
