The 12 gauge rounds work with standard cylinder bore and improved choke shotguns only.
Many shotguns are fitted with adjustable choke systems such as interchangeable choke tubes that allow you to change the choke to suit your needs. Please ensure that you are using the correct size choke tubes.
If your shotgun does not have an adjustable system, it should have the choke size engraved on the barrel.
The 12 gauge rounds should not be used in shotguns with chambers longer than 3 inches. 2.5" through 3" chambers are ok. Chamber length is normally engraved onto the barrel as well.
If you are unsure of the choke size or chamber length of your shotgun, please reach out to the manufacturer of the shotgun for assistance.
The 12 gauge rounds were designed to work in a pump action or single shot shotgun and will not cycle a semi automatic shotgun as they do not contain gunpowder. They can be manually cycled and fired through most semi auto shotguns.
