I'll spin a tale here to underscore my high opinion of the RST 7/8 ounce 16-gauge Falcon Lites. Some years ago when the Vintage Cup was at Pintail Point I bought a VH 16 30" gun while at the event. Choked I-Mod & Full. I was itching to shoot the gun and went over to RST looking for 1-ounce loads to do the 16 gauge American Classic event. Morris told me about his then new 7/8 ounce Falcon Lites and at first I was skeptical; I was a serious sporting clays shooter and always felt the more pellets in the air, the better. He gave me two boxes plus a few extra shells in case of trap malfunctions and asked for my feedback after finishing the course. I'd never shot that Parker before - no practice shots - and ended up 3rd place in the event against something like 60 shooters and with a score of 45 ex 50 as I recall. Anyway, since then I've almost exclusively used that 7/8 ounce 1125 speed shell for 16b clays, grouse and woodcock. Yep I'll have a few heavier shells loaded with 6's and 4's in the vest in case I run into pheasants or turkeys while out in the covers.
I traded off that 16 VH 30" a few years later and always regretted it. She just seemed right whenever I shot her. Then at the VGC two weeks ago I found another 16 VH 30" and bought the gun. Again it's choked I-Mod & Full. I didn't have any 16 gauge shells with me but couldn't wait to shoot the Parker and RST obliged with a box of Falcon Lites in 7-1/2 shot. Joined up with two friends shooting the woods course and broke 24 ex 25, again the first time I shot the new to me Parker. Brought back memories of that day at Pintail Point.
Those 7/8 ounce 16 gauge RST's rock!
