Detailed Description

Rio 12ga 3" new & primed hull (100/bag)

Color: Royal Blue
Top Edge: Skived
Depth: 2.700"
Length: 2.964"
Brass: 0.883" (22mm)
Primer: Rio-209
Headstamp: 12ga w/stars
Wall Thickness: 0.028"

12ga 3" royal blue tube Rio hulls with full 22mm high brass. Rio 209 primer. Very crimpable plastic combined with large internal capacity.

Primer notice: Like Fiocchi, Rio's proprietary primer is made in Europe to a metric specification. The result is that the primer measures approximately 0.001" larger than standard U.S. primers. Therefore, plan on reloading them with Fiocchi or Rio primers - otherwise a U.S. primer will be loose in the primer pocket. Of course, primer pockets can always be repaired with a Primer Pocket Conditioner tool.

Used these shells last season and they worked great. the crimp held all summer and this year they are still working great. Held up in the snow and rain. Used them with Steel Shot #4,6,2,BB. And used them with ITX-10 #2&B they were great.

I switched from Federal to Rio due to Federal hulls not being available for six months. The Rios feel like harder plastic and seem to crimp better. They are also $13.99/100 vs $22.99/100 for Federal and have taller brass bases. Bye-bye Federal.

	Latest news on Rio 3 22mm hulls	12/20/2016
On Mon. Dec. 19th. 2016 I emailed Rio about when they would have these hulls in stock. On Tue. Dec. 20th. 2016 they replied with this email: Thank you for taking the time to get in touch with us regarding the difficulties you have had in finding our 3in 12ga hulls. Unfortunately at this time we do not have any of our 3in hulls available. This is something that we are working to remedy as quickly as possible, but due to production delays we are currently going through a shortage. Ballistic Products is still the only place that these hulls can be purchased from and we are working hard to get them restocked. I apologize that I currently do not have better information and please let me know if you have any further questions. I hope this will make you aware of what is going on with the Rio 3 22mm hulls.
