what does everyone think if this ammo and what hulls do they use I'm guessing their probably Cheddite
Score ammo is made up in Carberry, MB. Unfortunately, they couldn't come to terms with Cabela's, so they are somewhat hard to find, even just three hours away from where they are made. WSS used to have them in Regina. I haven't used them much, but would buy more if I came across them. I have several cases now.
I looked into this a few years back, and I'll share the information i got from Prairie:
If they have score written on them the are Cheddite. If not they are Maxim casings
I am sorry we can not help you other than that as we buy them already primed

Someone commented about the suspected over pressure, and I've experienced the same, on certain loadings. At the time I was testing 1 oz and 1 1/8 oz and did find one of those to be rather stout. I'd guess max.
For trouble free operation, I would pick Federal first. I also shoot Cowboy, which doesn't need much of a load, and it's hard to find a shell like a 1 oz at 1100 fps loading. Or even 7/8 at 1000 fps.
For flying yard vermin 1 1/8 @ 1200 is more than enough, 7 1/2 preferred.
I had a few flats of their target loads and they were fine. One thing I do find odd is that the 12 g target loads are yellow which is a color normally associated with 20 g.
Love score, hate challenger,
I don't mind the federal and estate(loaded by federal) target loads but I'm not looking at target loads right now. btw I stay away from Winchester cheapo aluminum based hulls have had them stick in in the chamber before and it was not fun.
I think I have read here in the reloading forum that all shotshell manufactures are now using the cheap aluminum based hulls?
is this true?

I think a couple of the North American premium lines still use brass with a few exceptions. Most Win AA, excluding the new high antimony Diamond grade Sporting shells, Remington Premier, Nitro, etc. as well.
