RST AMMO

[Angel Cruz Ortiz]

Eric, I was out last weekend with my 0 frame GH 16ga and my 1 frame VH and I use the 2-1/2 Lite 1 oz. loads and the recoil felt the same. Both guns have 28 inch bbls. I'm gonna try their new paper shells on my 16 ga lifter but I'll be using the 7/8 oz loads just in case.

[C.O.B.]

I have shot their 7/8 and 1 oz loads out of several 16 0 frame guns and one lifter with no problems. The 7/8oz load will consistantly break targets and makes a nice light upland bird load.

I just picked up 3 boxes of 2 1/2 inch 28's in their "brush load" for Grouse this fall. They should make a leathal combination and swat the Grouse with authority.

That's good to hear Richard. Now I feel better about taking the old girl out.

I just returned from a shooting session in my local gravel pit. I tried a new theory on my 41 Swiss cartridges, but will abandon it. My original idea performed better. As for the 1890 vintage 'New Baker', it handled the 10 gauge RSTs without a hitch. Recoil was light and the old girl threw some awesome patterns beyond 25 yards. It should be a deadly grouse gun this fall. Nothing like a set of one iron crolle (or London Twist, as Baker called them) barrels to enhance a day of chasing the elusive Ruffed Grouse!
