| No idea but Rottwiel is an old respected European maker, if they worked well and the price /availability was good, I would be happy |

| I have read on German chat sites that Rottweil is a well regarded producer, but evidently that pressures are a bit on the high side. Might be worth checking if necessary. |

Rottweil shells have been around in Australia for years,There was a line of trap and skeet shells which had a large chunk of that market and I still have thousand or so of 12 ga paper case game 1oz .They were the only 1oz 12 ga shells available in the 80s.
The 16 ga shells from Rottweil are the first I have encountered and Iwondered if any other members had tried them but it seems they may not be avaiable in the USA
good shooting
