Anyone else have this problem?

I bought a few cases of PMC Lite Target ammo from cheaperthandirt.com. Opened up case number one. The ammo is in good shape, but the cardboard boxes look like they've been left in a mouse nest for the young 'uns to teethe on. :mad: They're so bad, they actually break apart when I try to lift them out of the case.

Anyone else have this problem?

Haven't seen any PMC shotgun ammo recently. In places where reloading is not common, boxes are designed for one time use, just to get the ammo from the retail outlet to the consumer.

Euro ammo boxes especially are flimsy.

Don't blame CTD for this one. I buy PMC locally and the boxes hardly ever survive the trip to the range. I've taken to emptying their contents into a ziplock bag as soon as i am ready to go so that i don't have to worry about hunting for loose cartridges all day.

I have had rotten boxes for PMC shotgun ammo also.
