RST AMMO

[Bill Murphy]

Light, short barrel, open bored tens. I don't know what the original purchasers were thinking when they originally ordered them, but now they are very scarce and I buy every one I can find. I use the 1 1/8 ounce RST in the light tens.

In my modern 10 ga which has screw in chokes. I have a briley Light modified and I love that particular constriction. Though when I get my old sxs it has full/full. Also why does rst have 10 ga listed by the 100 rd case.only? I don't need that much but will buy it if they don't have.other options

Charlie, my Swiss is a Model 1869/71 rifle that I rescued from being turned into a parts gun or wallhanger. It needed a lot of TLC and quite a bit of stock work. The bore is rough for the first 6 inches or so, but puts 20 shots into a 3" group at 50+ yards with my improvised sights. I use a .430" Lee 310 grain gaschecked bullet and 11 grains of Unique. It is necessary to seat the bullets way out, but I tried seating them and crimping into the normal crimping groove. It did nothing but create a bigger jump for the bullet. I converted the bolt to centerfire and use trimmed and formed PP 8x50R brass. It is quite a shooter. Now that I have my loads where I want them, I will work on some long range shooting. I have quite a few 19th century milsurps along with my four 19th century shotguns. I have a seriously tight budget, so my guns certainly reflect that. I put many hours into making them right and loading my own cartridges. All of my guns were far from original when I got them. They just don't look like crap anymore. My newest rifle is a 1945 vintage MAS 1936 that I pulled out of a dumpster. It shoots amazing groups with cast bullets. Cheers!

Milton, RST will sell mixed cases and they also publish a list of their dealers who will ship you a box of shells. RST attends many side by side events where they display their wares and will sell you a box of anything on their price list. Where are you located? You may have an RST dealer near your home. There is a link to "Upland Supply", one of their dealers who will sell by the box.

I have used RST in the past as well,excellent product....unfortunately during a correspondence with Mr.Papp earlier this year he informed me that they can no longer ship to Canada...very sad new's.

1 1/8th oz of shot in a 10ga for Grouse No dog I presume.

I once tried to use my 6 1/4 pound ten gauge Sauer for tame pheasants with chambermates and light 12 gauge loads. The brass was sticking in the chambermates, so I finished out the day with real ten gauge shells. Now that RST is loading the 1 1/8 ounce tens, I haven't used the chambermates since.

Ditto. Problem is no carrier here will transport "dangerous goods" mixed in with the rest of their load. New issue as well involves the export requirements from USA side. The FFL I have used for 3 purchases says he could put all the export documents together but the end price for ammo by that route is too expensive. I have been working with a local Gunworks shop to see if they can get it here. Tough to keep reading about how great RST ammo is and not be able to just buy a flat. If anyone gets it figured out how to bring RST to Canada, it will be a happy day up here.

Cheers,
Jack
