"With the 2017 shooting season coming to a close, I am happy to say I was able to take home the High Overall title in the Open Division after some well thought out and run stages. My ammunition, loaded with Shell Shock Technologies' NAS3 cases, didn't miss a beat and braved the near freezing temperatures with zero malfunctions, as always. I'm definitely glad to be able to trust my equipment, regardless of the conditions," commented Vlieger.

About Shell Shock's NAS3 Cases:
Shell Casings.jpgShell Shock's NAS3 9mm cases are 50 percent lighter than brass cases, offer greater lubricity and will not abrade, clog, foul, wear-out or damage breach and ejector mechanisms. The cases offer greater corrosion resistance, tensile strength (2x stronger) and elasticity than brass. NAS3 cases will not split, chip, crack or grow (stretch) and are fully reloadable (using S3 Reload dies) and can be reloaded many more times than brass cases. NAS3 cases have been tested successfully by customers to pressures over 70k psi. NAS3 cases can be picked up with a magnet. The head can be colored for branding purposes and easy load identification.
NAS3 is "Best in Class" for maintaining consistent velocity between rounds. In an independent test performed by H.P. White Laboratory (a major munitions testing facility), rounds fired using NAS3 cases achieved a velocity standard deviation of 0.093 FPS (124-grain FMJ bullet, 4.2 grains Titegroup powder, 10 rounds, extreme variation 3fps).
