The high density foam works well in suspending parts in foam when thrown around in shipping. I've used them many times in shipping heavy propeller blades without issue as well.
i use pool noodles and pipe insulation also. when i ship fragile things i crate them and then put the crate in a cardboard box surrounded by bubble wrap or foam or both. if possible i hard mount to the crate. the truth is shotguns are a fairly sturdy object to begin with using common sense care should be sufficient. i would worry more about loss , theft, or mishandling.
