World Class trilogy shells are very good. Nice thump and pretty good size breakes for a triple break shell.

I second the double lightnings. Love how they come out of the gun separate with tails.
(You can see 21 of them going in the thumbnail here http://www.pyrouniverse.com/gallery2...20/ppuser/7043)

Had some American Rising quad breaks last year that were pretty good too.

I'd go for America Rising. Just make sure you get the ones that have a cardboard sleeve. These seperate when they come out of the tube so you get four breaks at different locations instead of four breaks on top of each other.

the Kylin rewrap of that is Saturn Rising. And yes, it has the cardboard sleeve so they all break at different locations sort of like this:

only of course spaced further apart!

i know everyone has there favorite brand but check these out...

http://www.millerfireworks.com/forwa..._w_2mortar.wmv

they have a strange name (double break with two mortars) but it's a damn good peanut shell for the money. i use these all the time for false finales. they come packed 6-12.

I had all those shells in 1 & 3/4" & 2" Single, double & triple break. Very nice shells, indeed.

I'd love to get more of these, the breaks are very very nice indeed. I had a rack of the double breaks for my finale in the past year, very very very nice, the crowd went wild !

Yeah the only reason I will need them for is a finale. I wont have that many racks, so basically 2x36 shot racks would normally be 72 breaks. with a triple break I would have 216 breaks. much better IMO to have three times the breaks. some sky
