In the case of the step at the end of the chamber there really isn't a problem as plastic and/or paper shells are thicker than the metallic cartridged these guns were designed to shoot. The step measurement is approximately the same measurement as the thickness of the metallic shell wall.

Easy to tell the measurement of the transition by running a bore gauge through the chamber into the bore. Unfortunately, a Skeets micrometer will not measure chambers in ten or twelve. I use Galazan's gauge that is up around $500 now.
