I was in Academy yesterday and they had 6 pallets of 12 gauge loads out but no 20 gauge. Don't they put flats of 20 out?

Where do you find Rios? The only place I find Rios is at B&S guns in garland. And if I'm correct there about $7 a box

They are a new item, so stocking is sketchy. Academy is only stocking load #28 in 12 gauge. You'll still have to go to Cabela's to get load HV32.
If you aren't picky and your birds fly lower the #28 load will kill birds. I prefer the 'wall of lead' approach with the wind and high fliers we deal with. I've considered trying a case of the Texas Loads, but they are pricey at over 90 per case.

Depends on what store you go to. Mine has 12g, but no 20
I'd ask him if he's pregnant. He missed a s__tload of periods. I'll take "things that look like a uterus" for $200 Alex.

For some reason they don't have the item Rio #IK - 217170 at Cabelas.
GAUG: 12HV -- 1 1/4 #8
I ordered a case for 69.99 on June 29th and picked them up. Went on the site to order a few more and no dice.
Those Texas loads are pricey. Nice shells, but pricey.

Winchester AA's have a $20 per case mail in rebate on them. Max of $100 or 5 cases. Tough to beat AA's

For those of you in Houston, don't bother going to Carters...They have next to nothing, a 10 box limit and higher prices.
