I'm trying some Rio hulls there a 12mm brass 2 -3/4 ,12 gage. I used 800X powder 29 grains, and a VP20 wad. I squish it down to 40 pounds then drop 1 3/8 ounce of # 7 1/2 lead shot.They should launch at around 1490 fps. I'll do some in #6 shot too . There no a target load and should be good for small upland birds and doves ( next year) I'm planning to use them on cottontail this winter.

They look like low brass plastic shells?? I thought you meant they were all brass cases.........................Kingpin ------------- There are times when a normal man must, spit in his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats. |

NOPE! Mid hight brass. They load OK not as good as the Fiocchi but there cheaper. The shoot great like all the rest I've been loading. ------------- Remember: Four boxes keep us free ,the soap box, the ballot box, the jury box, AND the cartridge box |

I bought a case of russian steel case shotshells, loaded wit OO Buck shot. I never shot any of them, and now you have me wondering if they are reloadable.....................Kingpin ------------- There are times when a normal man must, spit in his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats. |
