I went out to Wally World and some local gun stores this week, looking for some low recoil 00 buck. The only thing I've been able to find in low or managed recoil is Rio Royal Low Recoil, 1200fps. Price is right too, like $3.49 or $3.99 a box. I've got enough of it to spend some at the range. Have any of you used any of the Rio Royal low recoil stuff?
I suppose the reason I am a fanboy of loading slugs in my duty shotgun is because of the typical ranges I will encounter. The FliteControl buckshot is still pretty much a slug at 10-yards and since I might need barrier penetration that is why I opt for slugs up first. The RIO buckshot load has a very practical application for many (if not most) homeowners at typical distances involved. My police department has issued us RIO HV12BK 00 Buckshot for years. I love the FliteControl buckshot load and have reviewed in a very positive light, but it's not always the best buckshot load for every situation!
