My two boxes of RST Ultra-Lite 3/4 oz 1,100 fps 5,200 psi ammo came an hour ago, so I donned my heavy parka and heavy welding gloves and test fired both barrels. The load is very mild, and the old girl gulped them down just fine.

I tried two more, not looking away this time and found the shotgun barrels shoot right on at 30 yards to the sight with 2/3 of the pattern above point of aim...PERFECT!

I hope I have a few quail around in the morning. Rosie, Woody, Old Girl, and I will try to take two for my breakfast. The Paper 7/8 oz load of 6 shot churns up only 5,400 psi and will be in the left tube.

I enjoy shooting a gun that is not quite 100 years old. the 1887 must be great fun, and I hope lethal for a pair of Cali quail! Good luck.

Those RSTs seem perfect for an old gun used for quail! Hope you scored.

I'm going out next week but will be doing the "opposite" kinda gun--1970s Rem Wingmaster .410 with the awesome 3" "magnumb" shells full of #7 steel (the infamous "Gavin Newsome Special"). I'm using a Colonial "Skeet" choke which patterns steel well in this gun.
