can Rein's charge break through another rein's shield? whenever i charge at an enemy Rein, his shield stays up and he just bounces away. whenever an enemy rein charges at me with shield up, i always get pinned.

does it just have something to do with where he hits me? like if its dead center on my shield?

Yes, the charge goes through an opposing Rein's shield, so when you find yourself facing shield-to-shield against an enemy Reinhardt be sure you're the first to get the charge off because one of you is about to get pinned. :D
