RST 12 gauge Ammunition

[generaljpl]

Hello,

I would to know if some of you are familiar with RST brand ammunition:
http://www.rstshells.com/

After a few research on the internet I found that this brand is okay to use in old shotguns.

I want to try to use it in an old 12g. L.C. Smith double with damascus barrels.
( The gun is in good condition, it was checked)

They are making low pressure loads wich are okay to use with these types of barrels
RST Support recommended me 2 of their products:
3/4 oz Ultra Lite
7/8 oz Falcon Lite.

I would like to know if someones sees these brand of ammo here in Canada, Ideally near Quebec to avoid monstrous shipping prices.

Let me know.

Cannot help you as far as Quebec goes
The guys I know that use it get it from Prophet River Firearms in Alberta
Cheers.

I get mine from prophet river but im not certain theyre low pressure as they seem to recoil similar to regular 3 dram trap loads. They may very well be lower pressure but ibwas surprised at the level of recoil so i resorted back to rolling my own

Pressure and recoil are not related.
Recoil involves 3 factors. Weight of the gun, weight of the ejecta, and velocity of the payload.
Low recoil alone does not guarantee low pressure
