I'm sure that Fiocchi makes quality ammo, but just for info., my buddy bought some less than lethal shotgun shells at a gun show. They were "loaded" with 1 rubber ball. We decided to try them out the same day that I was showing off my Remington 870 Gatekeeper II. He shot them out of his short barreled copy of the Winchester 1887 lever action 12 ga. (I believe his is Norinco). I wasn't favorably impressed with the quality of the gun, but I digress. None of the rubber balls shot ever made it out of the barrel. My point is beware of the "specialty" shotgun shells and if you shoot them, check the barrel for clear after each shot.
