I will post back after I shoot them but I'm excited to see how they are and how they reload. I think that's a new wad.

You need to bring some extra down here and I'll help you evaluate their performance. Just sayin'.

$14.99 a box. Such a deal, oyvey.

I got them yesterday. Damn nice looking shell. STS hull but deep translucent burgundy. I don’t think $15 a box for these is crazy given the hull that can be reloaded quite a bit for practice and the state of the market. I can almost guarantee it is cheaper now than next year. What have you seen drop in price this past year? NOTHING. Add inflation to the mix and I’m buying now as much as I can. I could be wrong but I don’t think I am. Sure it’s different than an RST but they’re not cheap either and they’re going up in price. This is a handicap load so is a bit different animal but I’m glad to see Vista bring a new product to market.

My crystal ball agrees with Andy's assessment for the "out period". Local supermarkets have shelves empty of staples like cream cheese, cereals, graham crackers, zip lock storage bags, etc because they're all on allocation; and we wonder and complain about pricings for the complex to make powder, primers and shells that do make it to the market? Free money, worker shortages, inflation, material supply issues, almost all the familiar commercial powders are now made at only one facility in the US, increased environmental scrutiny, and management having to jump thru hoops to offer workers more money and incentives while also trying to turn a dime for stockholders. I know many if not all of these are inter-related and in any case I think we're in the new normal. Just my assessment fwiw.

I'll stick to reloading. I am currently loading 1 oz 12's for $4.75 with my remaining pre-pandemic supplies. Enough to shoot for the next year. I've just finished purchasing supplies for the following year at new inflated prices and it still comes out to $5.80 per box. A looong way from $10-20 for factory stuff.

True Gary but given limited time with work I’ll pick shooting over sitting at a bench any day. I do see a progressive loader in my future though. I can’t load fast enough.
