OP dian Campfire Member D Joined: Nov 2008 Posts: 275	Has anyone experienced any problems when using an insert in the shotgun barrel? My concern is that the amount of impact pressure needed for the shotgun primer, as well as the rounded shape of the firing pin could harm the pin when striking against the rather thin rim of a 22lr. Thanks.
