Default RST

Is RST ever going to ramp back up.I would think components are available now.Other manufacturers and several more new manufacturers don't seem to have supply problems.

If you go to their website they do have a limited supply of various shells.

I have looked and bought shells but a limited supply as stated.I'm not complaining just inquiring if anyone has any inside knowledge.Five years ago they were stocked and at the Southern SXS with a full trailer.Now limited stock I would think components would be available now.Most other suppliers and manufacturers are.Cost is a whole other issue.

How dependent were RST recipes on Alliant or other hard to impossible to get powders? Many Remington wads are also not available. Things are far from the pre Covid days when it comes reloading components.

Randall, what are the pressure levels of the shells you picture? Morris Baker and RST claims lower pressures suitable for composite barrels. Other makers of short shells with light shot loads do not make those claims.
