“The load patterns well on clay targets. I used them shooting sporting clays. The recoil was minimal. The hulls can be reloaded but I would only reload them once. The Hull is not that strong. Must use a straight wall wad for Rio Hull. The 7/8 oz shot load will break any clay target any distance you would shoot an 1 1/8 Oz load at. Same carry just fewer pellets. Lighter recoil as well.”
