Has anyone reloaded any RIO hulls? I have a bunch of 1 1/8 oz. trap hulls that I would like to reload. I can't seem to find any reloading data using these hulls. Thanks

  Yes they are great Hulls but you have to load them as a Cheddite hull I have a mec loader and I load red dot i use a 31 to a 32 bushing for 1 oz of shot you MUST use a federal 12 SO wad for the hull in 1 oz for 1 1/8 you should load red dot with a 33 or 34 bushing and use a federal 12 S3 wad It is a must that you use a FEDERAL WAD. and dont use any other primers than the RIO or CHEDDITE.

  If you are refering to the RIO paper hulls
  
  I just loaded a box last night
  
  I asked a few guys around the gun club and the general consensous was that they could be loaded the same as a federal paper hull. Or the same as a cheddite.
  
  1200 fps
  17.5 grs of clays
  waa12L wad
  1 oz shot
  win primer
  pressure was real low. less that 8000psi
  
  THIS LOAD WAS TAKEN FROM HODGDONS RELOAD MANUAL IT IS FEDERAL DATA LOAD THE WORD IS THAT ALL CHEDDITE/ROIS SHOULD BE LOADED WITH CHEDDITE DATA AND CHED/RIO PRIMERS.
  
  check with the manufacture of the powder that you plan to use, most of them have their reload datat online now.
