I see that Armusa Performance that their web site closed did they go out of business or are they just re vamping the site. If they are out of business were do we go now for 2 1/2 inch low recoil shells?

ARMUSA ceased operations last fall but excellent options remain.

Polywad 'Vintager' http://www.polywad-shotgun-shells.com 800-998-0669

Gamebore http://www.gamebore.com/index.asp is distributed by Target Loads USA 217-243-3727 Jacksonville, Illinois

RST http://www.rstshells.com 570-553-1651

And more 12g low recoil loads are available, which I would be perfectly comfortable using in a 2 5/8" 12g chamber:

Nobel Sport now has light 12g 1 oz and 7/8 oz and 20g 3/4 oz loads
http://www.dkgtrading.com/nobelsport/lr1.html

Remington 7/8 oz. 'Managed Recoil' load
http://www.remington.com/products/ammunition/shotshell/target/managed-Recoil_STS.asp

By Federal for MidwayUSA to the following specifications:
7/8 oz load Muzzle Velocity: 1200 fps Chamber Pressure: 5000 psi
http://www.midwayusa.com/static.exe/getstaticpage?page=11120061_page.htm

WinLite Low Recoil
12g is 28gm (1 oz.) at 980 fps
20g is 7/8 oz (just more than 24 gm) at 980 fps

That name is misleading. The ammo is from Spain. It would be near the bottom of my want to get list.

Is that an answer or do you have a name of the top of your list? I did ask for help not sarcasm

peters, I for one am sorry they went out of bussiness. I shoot their 2.5" 16 ga. Vintagers and have had very good results with them. Still have over a case left thankfully.

Armusa did have some decent shells at fair prices. For the record, pronounced "armoosa"... not "arms u-s-a". There was no deception from the sellers in Texas. Far as I know, Eley is now unavailable too.
