Default Trap ammo

Hi all, I have searched the threads and nothing jumped out at me, but I apologize if this is a repeat, I will happily redirect to an existing thread.

So, I have a nice coupon to a shooting supply store and thought I would grab some shells to shoot when my new-to-me gun comes back from it's physical. I will be shooting clays, probably 5 stand.

28" 1925 VH, 1.5 frame, being shot by a novice. RST 2.5 lite 8?

Thanks for your thoughts.

Pam

That's right Pam, that's what most of us use in our old Parkers. You can't beat them.

I agree with Dave and Dean just I would probably use 7 1/2's instead of 8's, have a little more breaking power on the longer shots or the rabbits on the SC field. Eric

While we're on the trap ammo topic, has anyone tried RST's new premium ammo - I'm looking at using the 3.5 DE 2 3/4 #8 in my 1929 SC Trap (ejector repaired by Chris T. recenlty)? Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays, all!
