Kent Tech

At Kent, it's all in the details. Here's what's sets us apart from the rest 

CX2000 PRIMER

The most reliable primer available, used throughout our shotshell line up to give shooters the utmost in consistent performance.

HIGH-PERFORMANCE BASE-WAD

Specifically designed to regulate head expansion and optimize cycling in semi-auto firearms.

DOUBLE BASE POWDER

Double Cutting edge custom double base powders that allow Kent to develop high performance loads, delivering maximum velocities without excessive recoil. Proven performance throughout temperature extremes.

NICKEL HEAD

Nickel plated to ensure smooth, reliable ejection while adding corrosion resistance.

HD HULL

High-Density polymer hull specifically designed to deliver easy loading and smooth ejection in high-performance loads.

PRECISION PLATED STEEL SHOT

Zinc plated for corrosion resistance; uniform sizes for consistent patterns and penetration.

PRECISION PLATED STEEL SHOT

Manufactured to the same high specification as our plated steel, these perfectly round pellets deliver superior results.

DIAMOND SHOT

Our precision lead shot is taken to the next level with a proprietary production process which sees it graded further than standard lead shot and then polished to produce highly consistent and uniform shot, delivering un-matched patterns.

TUNGSTEN MATRIX

Kent manufactures this non-toxic lead alternative by combining pure tungsten powder with a polymer binder. This patented process creates pellets with the density and malleability of high antimony, premium lead shot. Great patterns and devastating performance with no choke restrictions.

TUNGSTEN IRON SHOT

Engineered tungsten alloy pellets which boast 38% greater density than lead shot for maximum retained energy and astonishing knock down power.

BISMUTH HIGH-PERFORMANCE NON-TOXIC SHOT

Kent’s proprietary, high-density 9.6g/cc Bismuth is a premium non-toxic shot. The highly uniform pellets are as soft as lead for maximum energy transfer, delivering bone-crushing patterns at extended range with less wind drift.

HD HIGH DENSITY NON-TOXIC SHOT

Any Kent products which carry this symbol are approved as non-toxic by U.S. Fish and Wildlife and have greater density than steel at 7.8g/cc. The density of each specific shot type is listed in this symbol for quick reference.

LOW RECOIL

Shotshells with lower recoil than standard loads.

MANAGED RECOIL

High-Performance loads with recoil similar to standard loads.

ULTIMATE PERFORMANCE

Simply the cutting edge of shotshell performance.

PATTERN+ BALLISTICS

Loaded to optimal velocities with select premium components and layered shot sizes to maximize pattern density and energy.
