Do you use Rio ammunition? How much have you used? How does it compare to other ammunition you have used?

We have shot it, no problems. Price was the reason we bought the first box, it was cheaper, after we tried it we bought more.

Just FYI, there is a new Rio Ammunition plant being built outside of Marshall Texas. Saw an article about it this weekend.

The Marcus Clay Target Team has used Rio for the past couple of years and we haven't has any issues.
