I have some #4 2 3/4" "Tactical" loads from Remington. I usually store eight to ten rounds in the outer case of my Mossberg's carry bag. Than one day while I was pulling out the rounds, I noticed some styrofoam "beading" in the case. Apparently where the tip of the plastic shells were crimped, a few were left "open". I figured if these shells were immersed than they would probably fail to fire.
Quick fix: I took some hot wax and very carefully dripped it down onto the open area, "resealing" the gap. Just for giggles, I shot one...No problems.
