I just took 3 of the federal 12ga loads that you buy at walmart and took them apart, they are suppose to be 1oz #7 1/2 with 3 1/4 drams. Well all three shells had .96 of 1oz shot and the powder was only 18gr. So I wouldnt recommend anyone buy those loads other than chasing someone out of your pumpkin patch..

Yep, 200 rounds for $42. Knocked the crap out of the dove with those loads this year. Shoot 100 to 200 rounds every weekend at the trap and skeet range and the gun does not even seem that dirty.
My kid broke 20 out of 25 on his first round of skeet this last Sunday. No wonder he is not getting perfect rounds...  .

No offense but Reminton shotguns are prone to running. I good friend and co worker runs only walmart ammo in his beretta shotgun that he uses for 3 guns and no issues what so ever. I have never had a problem with it before.

Both the Benelli SBE's cycle it just fine and they are enertia driven, not gas operated. Other than hand loads it is really the only ammo I see shot at the range.

You still get a lot more shot than the ones I loaded for my hunting partner. SOAP sucks in a shotgun.
He could not figure out why her could not shoot a pheasant. My bag was full and I laughed my ass off.
