I cosign this endorsement of Rio shells. You won't find a better quality shell for anywhere near the price.

They are more expensive but shipping is free and there is no sales tax. Awesome performance!

I have always shot the Remington heavy dove loads. How do the Rio and Winchester shells compare?

3rds on the Rios. They put enough powder in those boys to run through any auto. You don't want a jam when the action gets hot.
