Here is my collection of shotgun inserts.

For the record I have only tried the 9mm, 22lr and .38 out of the 357. All of which I was pleasantly surprised by. Obviously they have limitations and are only good to about 25 yards. I’ve been hesitant to try the higher pressure 45lc and 357. Does anyone have experience with this or can recommend a single shot capable of handling such high pressure?

Personally I would only get the 18” or longer inserts. Even then it will never be a precision shooter out of a single shot shotgun but you can probably get ok groupings under 50 yards. The smaller ones aren’t accurate enough to justify any serious use outside of plinking. Just my 2 cents.

I’m starting to get pretty good with the 11 inch 9mm insert for out to 50 yards. Definitely not trying to do precision shooting with them , I have a real rifle for that. Lol They are just a lot of fun and could be useful in a pinch as my more accurate rifle doesn’t double as a bird gun. I’d say with practice at appropriate distances the 11 inch 9mm is as accurate as the nine mm revolvers I have shot so to me, that’s not too bad.

The 22lr insert has a bit more of a learning curve to get accuracy but I’m getting better with it. Ammo definitely makes a difference with these inserts also
