Yes. It works great for one round and then the shot capsules in any additional cartridges in the cylinder jump the crimp and tie up the gun. At least that's how it works for me with my RCBS dies and thin Remington brass. I never had this problem when I load .38 Special shot cartridges.
I also load .38 Special shot capsules into 9mm brass for use in my 940. Odd looking things, and so much is sticking out of the case that they are prone to breaking and spilling out their contents when subject to rough handling. But they work well too.
