Anybody here shoot Rios? I can't ever find a box in stores so I haven't been able to try them out.

Just looking for some reports on them. I plan on ordering a case of them for this season.

They are a really good shell and very reasonably priced, i buy a case after every season, $120 to my front door for #4's

I had good luck with the Kents I shot this year.
People talk alot of big talk about the different shells, I've shot them all and all BS aside if the ducks are in close where they should be they will all kill em. I really havent even noticed enough difference at long ranges to justify it, they both cripple unless its a magic BB.


I got a case of Federal 3" #2 for $99 and I will kill just as many ducks as a $200 case of Blackclouds.

The Federal I have tried in the past had crappy burning powder. Made my gun filthy.

All I used last year was the Xpert 2-3/4" low brass #7's & we smacked em dead up close and out to 40-50 yards

I picked up a flat of 2 3/4" #8 for dove so I will let you know in a few days.
I have shot all kinds. I like winchester hv. Kent's shot fine too. Shot a case of Fiochi #2's last season & no issues. I will order another flat for this season. $150 delivered for 3.5". I will stick w/ the Win HV for wading for the big ducks. Have not had one fail to shoot ever. May try the blindsides this yr. They aren't nearly as high as last yr.

If you shoot a pump the Rios are fine but i noticed that with my berretta 390 it didn't always wanna kick the shells all the way out. As far as killing power i didn't notice a difference from my usual winchester high velocity rounds.

#7s camo? I'd figure that would be a piss poor selection if they weren't in your face.

KILLER KALLZ!!!


But seriously, with the right choke tube, all the extra pellets stay tighter longer & it works awesome. Don't spread it around tho, I don't wanna have problems finding shells this year!!! :lol:

Only made a couple of those long shots, & it was gadwall. There's an MMT member that was with me on one of those hunts. If he ever gets his MB unstuck, maybe he'll chime in. :lol:

I was not stuck Camo.. I was winching over a "levee" ..... Tell you later.... Anyway... Yes Camo was shooting #7's and crunching gaddies up to 40 yards. @ half the price for a box of experts I tried it with great sucess also..

I got In a bind and sold all of my shotguns so I'll have to get another this season. Im really looking hard at the 390 or 391 for the price. Although of I find a SBE I or II for a good price I'm buying it if I can.

Out of all the shells I've tried, so far the best I have seen with factory chokes are the winchesters hv that get 1550 fps. Those are by far the est shell for the money from what I've shot. The blindsides really impressed me this year tho. I want a shell that will actually reach out there and touch them sometimes. Most of the times I have the ability to bring them I close, but any duck hunter knows there are always a lot of times when there a good ways out there with no chance of coming closer. The hypersonics are unbelievable, but will phuck a gun up quick if you use them all of the time.

Anybody happen to know anyone with a Good auto loader for sale for a good price? Really want a SBE, or beretta 390 or 391
