Default RST 10 gauge

Just wondering maybe, I missed it on here, but I was just on their page, and it states 10 gauge are discontinued does anyone know if that's the end, no more kaput? Yes I know I can call but thought someone may know here and I wouldn't have to bother them!

This past summer at Rock Mountain he was saying he couldn’t get components for 10 gauge . Hulls wads and powder if my memory serves .

GONE WITH THE ''WIND''

WENT to a Gun Show last weekend, I Seen a lot of 10ga. shells. It never fails,
I just Sold my 10ga. The fellow had over 10 Cases of RST Shells,
He had $200 a case on them.

The Guys at the RST Booth at Hausemann's told me if wads and powder
become available, they will load them again.

I saw the same thing on their page. Looks like I need to get into reloading at long last

Not to shift the course of this thread but I did notice yesterday that RST has 20 gauge available now at $200/Flat. Luckily I don't have a 20ga that requires 2 1/2" shells and I can use commercially available lighter loads.

So these may be a collectible now haha, I remember I ordered some of the last loads they had. They were so low on components the bismuth loads I got weren't even a load they listed on their website. I ended up not shooting many of them because I started handloading. What is unfortunate as well is right before covid happened they were working with Tom Armbrust to bring a 8 gauge load to the market. Even though I handload I like the option of buying loaded ammo because it helps me save powder for more specialty loads.

I still have a few boxes left too. Didn’t know they discontinued them either. They don’t pattern worth a darn in my gun anyways. Once I blow them out I reload them. Can’t find 10 gauge hulls either So i normally just go out and target shoot my RSTs ammo out and then reload the hulls. Glad I got into reloading because RST was the only 10 gauge “Damascus safe” ammo produced.
