Have a look at this. Ordered #9's from Rogers. The box says 1.5 oz #9's. The shells says 1 5/8 oz 7-9. What the heck did I get? Hope I haven't spent all this money and not got what I thought I was getting.

Shell looks like a duplex load. Cut one open and see.

I would say worst case scenerio you got an extra 5/8 Oz of tss per box. I wouldn't worry about it as long as they patterned well. Pretty sure the load would be tested and safe.

interesting.. you got one of the new duplex shells..which aren't even released yet. Are they all like that in that box.. or just that one?

That's what I was thinking also. I went and checked my boxes that I ordered.

That would be my guess also or if it's only one in the box someone didn't get the machine cleared out when they went from the duplex to straight nines.

I also noticed on Rogers website they had a 1000 and 1200 fps 20 gauge TSS Federal loads. Thought that was odd.

I believe the straight #9 are 1,000 FPS..thus considered "low recoil"   The #7 are 1,200

They are all the same. 3 boxes worth. I also read on another forum of a guy having the same issue.

This has somewhat concluded. Rogers gave me a call after I submitted a help ticket. They found 4 cases where Federal packaged the shells incorrectly somehow. Rogers Soorting Goods is having UPS return these shells and sending me straight 9's. Apparently the return shipping is going to be on Rogers not Federal, which I hate but that really tells me that Rogers Sporting Goods really cares about their customers.
