RIO Hulls

[Kskybroom]

Are Rio Hulls reloadable?? What type of hull are thay? Any load data? THANKS Ken

[Johnch]

Yep
They are a Cheddite hull

Look at the base
See the stars
Any brand hull ( lots of brands use Cheddite hulls ) that has the stars is a cheddite hull
Regardless of the name on the box or the hull color

If I remember right they can be reload, but they take a different primer. It's a hair bigger than a 209. Maybe a 616?

[ReloaderFred]

They can be reloaded with Cheddite, Fiocchi or Nobel Sport 209 primers. I've loaded them, but I prefer Remington Gun Club or Winchester AA for most of my loading.

Hope this helps.

Sorry to go off topic but has anyone had trouble with the nobel sport primers in the cold. Last year when the temperature was at or below 0 oc I had a number carts in quick sucession fail to fire. I used my brain and kept the remaing of the box to try on a warmer day and they popped fine. I dont use them now unless I can help it.

They are very reloadable, but the primer pockets , as noted are differnt, either use the 616's or swage them to use the 209's.

I found out recently... :)
