Q: I presently have a Saiga-12, with 10 rnd. stick Pro-Mags and 20 rnd. drum Pro-mags. Has anyone had experience with this brand of ammo in those weapons with those mags? I have heard rumors that the ammo works well with the 10 rnd. stick mags, but is inconsistant with the 20 rnd. drum mags. Thanks! Any info would be breatly appreciated!
Posted On: 2/1/13 By: John
A: This will depend on a few combinations; the type of ammo, the drum/ magazine and how the shooter reacts to the recoil. The larger drums have been known to have a round hang up to prevent round advancement depending on the overall length of the round. While we have not experienced this, perhaps others will be able to post a review of this below on our review section.
I have found it is usually a game of trial and error with larger magazines. To know how your ammo and magazine will perform, I would try a few different brands, fill the magazine to full capacity and see which rounds perform better than others. Some shooters will stretch the springs on their magazines to improve feeding.
Customer Reviews
- Wish they were really 2 3/4" as advertised. Review by John
-
I bought a full case of these. None of them are 2 3/4 as marked. Every other brand of 2 3/4 shell I have tried, works in my Mossberg 930 SPX. 7 in the tube and one in the chamber, can only get 6 of these in the tube. They are closer to 3" in shells.

Buckshot hunters can choose this no shotcup, no buffer, ammo to open their patterns in ultra-thick cover.Quality Performance Value
Be aware some 2 3/4" chambered 12 gauge shotguns (such as the older Winchester 1200 series) will not function with standard length roll crimped shot shells. SAAMI Voluntary Industry standards list 2.405" as the maximum length for Fold Crimp and 2.450 for Roll Crimped shotshells.
Rio Royal 00B pellets measure .34" diameter. Some other brand 00B rounds use pellets as small as .315 " SAAMI Voluntary Standard is .330" + or - .015" (Posted on 3/21/13) - Great$$$$$$ Review by Dw

Cycles in all my auto berettas mossbergs excellent value great load thanks!!! (Posted on 1/10/13)Performance Value Quality - surprisingly good patterns Review by Fwank

Tried these through an 18" Remington 870, cylinder bore.Performance Value Quality
Got 6" patterns at 7 yards, 8" patterns at 10 yards, and 12" patterns at 15 yards. That's better than I expected for cheap buckshot.
Also, no failures to feed, cycle, extract, eject, or fire. (Posted on 12/9/12) - plain and simple awesome Review by chop

awesome stuff for cheep. buy it, do it now (Posted on 9/10/12)Performance Value Quality - Not 2-3/4" Review by Lunareclipse02
-
My Remington 1100 wont cycle these shells properly. The major reason is because it is longer than a standard 2.75" shell. I suggest to not buy these shells. For the money they are a good deal for a pump but for an autoloader which is chambered 2.75" it is not a good deal for you. They do not crimp their shells properly. So now I have many shells I cant use. (Posted on 9/6/12)Performance Value Quality - See Vinnie's review above. Review by Joe

I too have a Mossberg 930SPX and can not get the maximum capacity loaded since these are longer than 2 3/4. (Posted on 3/30/12)Performance Value Quality - Mr Review by macaroon

Great ammo and just what I want for home defense! (Posted on 3/19/12)Performance Value Quality - Not exactly 2 3/4 Review by Vinnie
-
I'm supposed to be able to put 7 rounds in my Mossberg 930SPX. I can get only 6. Comparing these to the Federal I have, these should really be considered 3" and not 2 3/4. Keep that in mind when purchasing.Performance Value Quality
Otherwise, I think they're good. (Posted on 3/17/12) - 870 & Saiga Like It Review by Raiden
-
Both my 870 and my friends Saiga 12 seem to like it. Good pattern out of each, no failures to feed & fire, and the price was great. Cycled the Saiga 12 without failure. I will gladly buy more Rio Royal buckshot, when available. (Posted on 12/22/11)Performance Value Quality - Excellent Training Ammo Review by The Breeze
-
May not pattern as well as some of the big brands,but I was completely satisfied with this ammo thus far. This was my first purchase from LGC, and as others note excellent service. Also knowing what you want is in stock is a BIG +. (Posted on 2/10/11)Performance Value Quality - Good, Hot Round! Review by DaveEagle
-
Works great. Muzzle velocity is a little faster that some off-the-shelf ammo. Simple physics tells you that translates into a little more recoil. Do-able if you've shot regular ammo before. Felt recoil more noticable if you've been using Low Recoil or Managed Recoil type ammo. Overall, great value for EXPECTED use.

Cycles my saiga bottom line worth every penny (Posted on 9/7/10)Performance Value Quality - Nothing wrong with these shells! Review by DeWente69
-
I took some to the gun range yesterday. They have a slight kick so if you're not comfortable with a 12 gauge yet I would practice with somethin else first. But if you are an experienced 12 gauge shooter...I'm sure they will bring down whatever you hit! I bought mine for home defense...and after looking at the holes in my target...I'd hate to get hit with one of these! (Posted on 7/9/10)Performance Value Quality - Nothing wrong with these shells!
