.

I think if i booked a hunt and rolled in one of those joints with a short barrel 10 and my 1 1/8 ounce handloads they can suck the hind tit or give me a FULL refund .

Thats one way to put it lol but pretty much this , If thats what the client wanted than we would oblige them . Maybe if they used longer guns they would have better muzzle awareness . Ive seen one guest accidentally shoot someones house who bordered the plantation . Then again we did have 3,800 acres I have no idea why the game guide wanted to hunt on the perimeter of the land .

Are your handloads similair to the RST 1 1/8 oz ?
Thats all I ever shot in my short 10s . A very low kicking load and if I get another 10 ga will order some more in different shot sizes this time .

Some of these quail hunts especially in my area I think are around 2,000$+ a day with a 8 person party required .

I'd say mine just might be lighter then RST . 18.6 grains of Red Dot pushing 1 1/8 ounces and a handful of spacers does not make a barn burner thumper load .

Are they sub sonic being such a lite load ? I think the RSTs are around 1150 fps ? Ive always wondered how or if transonic flight affects bb's and round balls like it does conical projectiles .

I never put any of the RSTs up against a patterning board to see how they actually perform . I know they worked very well on squirrels though .

I dunno if they're subsonic or not . I do however know they eat up clay targets on a skeet field , trap field and the limited sporting clays / five stand birds I've fired them at . They also do very nicely on dove and I would assume quail as well .

Morris the guy at RST makes some pretty decent shells as I've bought a few boxes mostly 2 1/2" for my W&C Scott 12 and 20 hammerless guns . I however do not wish to pay his price , not saying they're over priced or anything like that I'm just cheap when it comes to ammunition .

Yeah they went up 3$ a box compared to last time I ordered any but a case usually lasts me a long time .
Im curious to see what they price their 8 gauge ammo at . Im guessing 30$ per 10 rounds .
