I'm surprised about the compatibility with Remingtons and not with Mossbergs, IIRC it is the opposite with Aguila Mini-Shells.

  @Giolli Joker With Aguila, mini-shells both are less-than-100%-reliable UNTIL you put the mini shell adapter in the Mossberg at which point the Aguila Mini Shells are 100% reliable in the Mossberg.
  Here I am seriously doubting the quality of information when Andrew states that these shells are reliable in a Remington without actually testing that, and apparently he is completely unaware that a mini-shell adapter is readily available for the Mossberg. ANY article or video about a new company making mini-shells OBVIOUSLY should have included a comparison or at least a mention of the better known product. Based on this fluff piece we have no idea if these Ventura Mini Shells are the same length as Aguila, or longer, or shorter. Also Andrew tells us that he could only get 5 Ventura mini shells into his gun that normally takes five regular 2.75" shells -- does this mean the Ventura shells are ALMOST 2.75" long, or that his shotgun is defective, or that he simply didn't load it properly? Again OBVIOUSLY if the whole point of these shells is to be able to load more of them into a tubular magazine, then doing that is a significant point of the review.
