The 1oz Winchester loads are pretty easy to find online they are currently around $150/case, I am seeing them in #6 and #8 shot.

The "good Samaritans" at our last local gun show were offering 16 ga. Remington 1 oz. Game Loads for $225 a flat (10 boxes) mostly in #6 shot.

“Good Samaritans” = opportunists.





.

Remington dove and quail 16 gauge 1oz loads actually measure 21/4" unfired and 21/2" fired. I have shot them in damascus and fluid steel guns. Perfectly safe and you can find them at Walmart for $7.79 per box.

Alas, there are no shotgun shells of any kind at our local stores. I'm glad I don't shoot that much and have a fair stash of RSTs.

Could this be a good side to low bird numbers?:crying::banghead:

I have a stockpile of RST 20 and 28 gauge. I am taking bids. PMs only. :whistle:


Just kidding! I do have a bunch of both those gauges but I plan on using them all.

There are always those who claim that Remington 1 oz 1200fps shells produce much more recoil than RST 1 oz 1200 fps shells. RST uses slow burning powder ( PB?) which lengthens the period of pressure but does not reduce the peak pressure. Because the length of push is longer it is often perceived as less than shorter duration loads when the recoil energy is the same. Recoil energy is of course not the same as, but related to , chamber pressure. Chamber pressures for all these loads is below SAAMI maximum.

Of these different brand cartridges, which produces the greatest foot pounds of recoil ?

Without calculations I will guess Federal . Which i use some.

looks like the rst. Is there a prize?

So what are the pressures of all these
