There has been some chatter over on 16GA.com about the recent black RGL being loaded in Federal hulls. I cut an older RGL (perhaps 8-10 years old) hull and a fairly recent Federal 16ga. hull. The older RGL had a plastic base wad and the Federal had their typical fiber base wad. I don't have any recent RGL hulls to inspect. If you have recent RGL hulls you might inspect the base wad as to whether it has a plastic or fiber wad. Might provide good info.
The older RGL hulls are only good for 3-5 reloads, at least in my experience.
