Worked great for that. Can't think of much else it would be good for. As for ejecting, we have the same problem in an old 22 single shot bolt gun that for 50 years plus has only shot shorts. Put a LR in it and it won't extract it. My guess is there is a carbon ring where the shorter casing ends. Same with longer bird shot brass? Carbon rings can be cleaned out, what you have is a corrosive hot gas bell out, the case will expand to fill the groove and get's stuck. Every kid needs a Dog and a Curmudgeon. Remember Bowe Bergdahl, the traitor. Beware! Jill Pudlewski, Ron Oates and Keven Begesse are liars and thiefs!

Good to see some available though. I have never shot one. I don't know what I would use them for. So at that price they are a pass for me too. I bought a few boxes off a auction for $3 a box to haul to the gun shows and at $3 a box if there had been 100 boxes, I would have bought them all, and never shot one.
