AS I have gotten older I don't like the recoil and I assume the gun is at least as tolerant as I am. Both of us agreed to use as light a load as will get the job done. I rarely go over a 1oz load in any gauge and 1200fps is about my max except in modern 20s and 28s. 7/8oz is perfectly acceptable in any gauge and I regularly shoot one from RST in my vintage British guns. I have found the Rios are very good in my Parkers on the trap field and the recoil is acceptable. I have never used Herters (at least not since 1959) but I will try and find some.
