AA Low Recoil Low Noise Target Load 12 Gauge Shotgun Ammo
I have not been able to find this type of shotgun shells for the last two years. Our sport is cowboy/cowgirl action shooting and prefer to shoot the AA Low Recoil Low Noise loads at 980 FPS, rather than the Target Loads we have been shooting at 1145 FPS, which had enough recoil that my wife switched from her single trigger shotgun to a heavier double trigger shotgun. Thank you for making these shotgun shells available!
Would you recommend this? Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Just what I needed!
These shells are unobtanium in my area but Brownells had them, and surprisingly in a case lot. Great price and super service all around.

Cowboy Action Shooting
I use this shell on the shotgun portion of Cowboy Action Shooting. Great price,recoil is great, no ejection problems. Easy to reload and I have never had a problem using this shell. I can't teach them to jump in the chamber though.

favorite for cowboy action
great for all day shooting at close cowboy action knock down targets and my wife has no complaints of recoil accumulation and we both show very good results with the best reliablility.

Muzzle velocity inadequate for semi-auto
This 12 ga ammo does feature low recoil, which is easy on the shoulder. However, the 980 fps muzzle velocity is inadequate to cycle a semi-automatic shotgun, necessitating manually extracting shells after each firing. Works OK in pump action and over/under shotguns.

Not the AA of the past
I Use in cowboy action, cases started bulging out in my 87 Winchester. Discovered they had bulged the chamber at the extractor cuts. The cases are much thinner and have a separate plastic base wad instead of solid base of old. These cases are poor and if you get one reload out of them youre lucky. Definitely not the AA of old! Low recoil Ill use them in my 97.
