I’ve shot several different Rio loads over the past five years and they’ve never failed.
My upland preference is an offering they’ve branded as a “Texas Game Load” a 2.75″ shell with an #8 or #7.5, 1.25 oz. loads, boosted to the muzzle at a very respectable 1250 fps.
But no matter what Rio load I’ve used, the results afield have all been – outstanding!
I live in North Texas and Rio has opened up a plant I think in Kilgore or some place in East Texas.Are they ever going to have tours it is brand new state of Art factory?
Mr. Loe — The new Rio Ammo plant is in Marshall, TX; you’ll have to ask them if they plan to offer tours. You can find much more information at http://www.rioammo.com/
How satisfactorily do Rio Target shells hold up to reloading? I assume their primers are 0.001″ oversized when compared to American made shells. Is that correct? Finally, is their base wad paper, or a more durable material?
Ron — Not sure of the specific answers, but I have found that the experts at Ballistic Products like Rio components a lot: http://www.ballisticproducts.com/All-Rio-Hulls/products/632/.
RIO is about all I shoot. However, sometimes they are hard to find on the shelf, but becoming more common. Most of the time I order them online. Also, they offer a 1 oz load in 28 gauge.
I have found it to be a great load…
just picked up a mixed case of Rio Bismuth for waterfowl and use in vintage guns where non-tox is mandatory…
Nice Parker shotgun shown, with the deceased Sharp-tail Grouse. My guess is- a later Ilion mfg. 12 bore “Old Reliable” possibly in a Skeet gun configuration-just a guess.
