Default RST loads on GB

I maintain a watchful eye on GB as I have occasionally managed to acquire some RST ammo over the past several years that different shops have listed at reasonable pricing. However, I've never seen RST ammo boxes like these? Are these some really old stock? I've only been at this for five or so years now, but I haven't run across this box styling yet. Mostly just curious, I would not consider that pricing "reasonable". At least not yet.

I have purchased boxes like all of those from RST over the years, with the exception of the yellow box. That's probably legit also, but I've not seen one like that.

The blue, white, and black boxes are from the old RST company, but Morris has used them to box current production. That's what I need, $27.50 a box shells to shoot clay targets.

RST LTD is the name of the company before Morris bought it. Now it’s RST Classic Shotshell Co. Inc.

Wow that's as eclectic as high-end fly rods being made in Telluride, CO.

Now there’s irony for you, Craig. I think you meant one to(o) many, but your comment is a gem.

I’d much rather miss with a cheap shell, if I can find one…two, er, too.
