Default Turkey w/RST 20 ga. Shells

I have been extremely pleased with RST products. Have used both their 10 ga. and 20 ga. shells for a couple of years. This past Saturday morning I took a beautiful Tom with a VH 20 ga. using RST 7/8oz #6's. I put a #6 in the right barrel and a #5 in the left. So far I haven't had to use the #5 side. I work the bird in as close as possible and won't typically take a shot beyond 30 yards just out of respect for the bird. The Parker has 30" F&M barrels. The Mod barrel did its job very well by dropping the bird in its tracks at 23 yds. Our Wisconsin season has ended; heading to Nebraska tomorrow to finish out their Turkey season. Will be using RST's again in a different 20 ga. gun.

I really like the fact that if you have a question regarding RST ammo, you can call Alex or Morris and get answers; no double talk, straight forward answers. Back to packing.....

Best always, Carl Beers

If I am going on an expensive hunt, I always take RST's. Recently my horrid attorney friend purchased a little Webley Scott 28 gauge from Julias. We were shooting our 28's (mine is a Parker he found for me) miserably with reloads. The last two stations I produced a box of RST's and we didn't drop another clay. I wish I could afford to shoot factory loads all the time.
