What's going on with PA lately? I just got a shipment of pellets and one of my tins of Baracuda Match looks like it hit the floor hard. Ain't opened it yet... scared of what I might find.

We had this problem once with a special on Gamo pellets (I think from GamoUSA). The tins came loose in a cardboard box with just a smattering of shredded paper tossed in. Many reported dented cans. If your can is about 90% useless, tell PA. They should send you a new one, no return. Take a picture and email them.

My pellets from PA have always been OVER packed. I've never had to return anything to them but I hear the customer service is great.

Big Block, the tin of Baracuda Match I got was the same. I ordered 3 tins of Hunter and one of Match, all we're nestled in foam, but the tins of Hunter are fine and blemish free but the Match tin has a big ol dent in it. It was put in the box that way.
I think someone is dropping the ball (tins) over there lately.
- Mark
p.s. (added in edit) I opened up the tin of Baracuda Match. I got lucky, pellets look good.

Bummer 454, I thought PA was the bomb when it comes to pellet tin condition.
Their packing and boxing is nothing short of over-kill.
I hope it's just a temporary quality control issue.
Addicted to their 4for3 deal.....that reminds me, I better score some tins soon! - before I start to break out in hives.
