Yes and Yes. I don't get the spread I do with the AAs but the 30 yard center density is nearly the same. The gun has barrels sleeved by KirK Merrington choked skeet in/skeet out (sort of light IC/light Mod). Kirk advised me that steel was ok. The black Cloud wads are very stout, no shot could touch the bore. I believe the wad is desighned to "parachute" away from the shot as it leaves the muzzle. Advertised velocity is 1500 fps for the 1oz load; the pushback is sharper than the 1&1/8oz AA, but the gun is a #2 frame and handles quite nicely. I did get my stuff from the big box this last season.
