Have been watching, like many others, RST for a couple of years now and doesn't appear that any 20 gauge relief is in sight. Am interested in ammo for snipe and woodcock in particular, but ruff's also. Have used some Kent Upland when I could find it, but would like a little gentler load. Any insight, or suggestions appreciated

Mike, I’ll be interested to see any response you get. You’re not alone in your quest.
