Customer feedback on Rio Ammunition shotgun shells is generally positive, especially regarding value for money, with many citing low prices and good performance as key strengths. Reliability is widely praised, particularly in pump-action and some semi-automatic shotguns, with numerous users reporting hundreds of rounds fired without failures to feed, fire, or eject. Patterns and accuracy meet expectations for both self-defense and range uses, though some note wider patterns than premium brands. Recoil varies across loads, with both low-recoil and full-power options available; most users find recoil manageable, though some find standard loads stout. Cleanliness is described as acceptable, though a few mention more residue than competitors. A common criticism is that shells run longer than US-standard 2.75 inches, reducing magazine capacity and causing cycling problems in some autoloaders. Overall, Rio offers affordable and generally reliable ammunition, best suited for pumps and break-action shotguns.
Great defense ammo for a Mossberg Shockwave
I tried every Buckshot I could find for my 20 Gauge Mossberg Shockwave and the Rio worked the bast.
12 ga - 2-3/4" Low Recoil - Slug - Rio Royal - 5 Rounds
This was a nice way to ease into firing slugs. It allowed more energy to be focused on the mechanics of the shot without worrying too much about the recoil. Accuracy was there , and had no issues whatsoever with cycling through the Benelli. I will buy a again. A pleasure to shoot.
Dependable and Powerful
Great value on these 00 Buck Shot shells. Very well constructed and had tight groupings at 15 ft. I'm not sure I would consider these low recoil. High brass and powerful. Especially with a hand held Mossberg 500 with no shoulder stock. I only want to shoot these when I have to but feel sorry for the target when I do. I would comment on Lucky Gunner but everyone already knows they are great.
Great value Great Performance
My wife likes to shoot, but I get tired of picking her up every time she fires my shotgun. It's boom and then pick her back up, boom and pick her back up. But now with this low recoil shot she is handling the weapon just fine and her accuracy has improved. I think that's good?
very pleased with Rio again
I have used the Rio buckshot at several tactical training classes where I have shoot over 500 rounds without a single issue. I decided to give this slug a try because the price was so amazing, and I was equally please. I have been through nearly all 250 rounds and have never had a single issue. The low recoil was a welcome attribute for long days of training. Used with Benelli Super Nova.
