Question for the 10ga. Folks

[Matt Valinsky]

I havea Parker 10ga Grade 1 hammer gun That I've had around 10 years and think it's about time I started shooting it.

I have RST hulls and Federal Black Cloud hulls. The RST hulls look like the Black cloud hulls, same brown color and head stamp, no stars. So the question, are the RST hulls Federals?

Back when I bought the gun a Mec reloader and the hulls came with the deal so thinking about reloading for it I bought a bag of Remington SP 10 wads and a 1 pounder of Red Dot. At the time I think I recall the wads and powder where part of a recipe along with Federal hulls, but as long as it'sbeen I might be wrong. Any thoughts in that direction? I will be checking Pete's spread sheet also. But in any event, thanks for any info you might pass along.
