The one problem I found with the Gamebore shells, at least the ones I had, was that they had plastic wads in them. The black powder burning heats them up to the point that they melt a little bit in the barrel everytime you shoot one. Once the gun cools, to say it makes it a bit hard to clean, is a gross understatement. Maybe they figured that out and started using fiber wads, the shells I had were made several years ago. But I'd ask some questions before I bought any.
