What's everyone using for ammo these days?

Thanks George, the enjoyment I get from all aspects of this hobby are priceless. I'll pick up a few cases of RST and give them a try.

Chris, You should give some serious thought to reloading. Mec machines can be had for short money in 12 gauge. There really are some great advantages to cooking up your own loads not to mention the cost savings.

I want to make my self clear as i think like a lawyer but type like a moron:

I reload a lot, so much so that My left wrist is killing me from sliding the bar on my old Mecs.
that being said, I have gotten to the dark parts of my gun safe and gotten out the composite steel Parkers and even joined the Vintagers. so i needed short shells and went right away to RST. Very very very nice folks to deal with. HOWEVER, pricey for this old swamp Yankee. I will save my hulls and start reloading shortys as soon as i can.
BUT, I also buy 12 guage shells at Cabelas on sale because if you do the math, you cannot reload 12 guage as cheap as you can buy them (I was a CPA before I went to law school so I know how to use a 10 key). I like my personal loads better for Trap but I will shoot any damn shell in skeet.
Consequently, I have more different kinds of ammo in my SUV than you can shake a stick at. I get nervous parking near our Federal building in Hartford.

My motto: don't outlive your ammunition supply.
