Shell Shock Technologies Welcomes Chase Rains as its Newest Sponsored Shooter

Shell Shock Technologies will supply Rains with its NAS3 cases for his competitions during 2020.

Westport, Conn. (May 2020) – Shell Shock Technologies, LLC., an early-stage technology, and manufacturing company focused on developing innovative case technologies for the ammunition industry, is pleased to announce it has signed Chase Rains as its newest sponsored shooter. Shell Shock Technologies will be supplying Rains with its NAS3 cases for his competitions in 2020.

“I’ve seen this product in action and I believe it is driving the industry in the right direction. I’m looking forward to representing Shell Shock Technologies at my upcoming matches and helping to educate other shooters as to why their NAScases are a step above the rest,” commented Rains.

A lifelong shooter, hunting and target shooting have always been Rains’ favorite pastimes. As he grew up, he began to work on firearms and became a Certified Gunsmith, as well as an instructor teaching new shooters. In 2018, Rains was invited to a 3 Gun match and fell in love immediately. He began competing shortly after, then transitioned to USPSA matches as his main focus. In 2019 he competed in nine majors and over 40 Level 1 matches.

He can be seen competing next at the 2020 Oklahoma Section Championship, to be held at the Oklahoma City Gun Club, in Arcadia, Oklahoma, from June 19 – 20, 2020.

About Shell Shock Technologies NAS3 Cases:

NAS3 9mm cases are 50 percent lighter than brass cases, offer greater lubricity and will not abrade, clog, foul, wear-out or damage breach and ejector mechanisms. The cases offer greater corrosion resistance, tensile strength (2x stronger) and elasticity than brass. NAS3 cases will not split, chip, crack or grow (stretch) and are fully reloadable (using S3 Reload dies) and can be reloaded many more times than brass cases. NAS3 cases have been tested successfully by customers to pressures over 70k psi. NAScases can be picked up with a magnet. The head can be colored for branding purposes and easy load identification.

NAS3 is “Best in Class” for maintaining consistent velocity between rounds. In an independent test performed by H.P. White Laboratory (a major munitions testing facility), rounds fired using NAS3 cases achieved a velocity standard deviation of 0.093 FPS (124-grain FMJ bullet, 4.2 grains Titegroup powder, 10 rounds, extreme variation 3fps).
