I was referring more to the paper shells sold by RST. Any advantage or disadvantage to using them?

Any advantage / disadvantage with the RST paper shells? Velocity seems to be a little faster.

Thank you Scott. Very helpful. As this is my first (not last) Parker, I want to make sure I take care of it. Thanks again for the help.

One distinct advantage is they smell good after you shoot them.

What is a "gay grouse" load?

More to the point... what is a "gay grouse"?

In the spirit of political correctness I will refrain from comment.

Those would be the birds that don't fly straight
