Many makers offer longer inserts, though due to the variations in shotgun bore diameters, these usually require custom manufacture. [ 8 ] Rifled inserts are also available, to allow the use of handgun cartridges or relatively low-power rifle cartridges such as the 12 gauge X Caliber adapter sleeves.

A series of individual 1/1,000,000-second exposures showing shotgun firing shots and wadding separation. In shotgun shells, the wadding is actually a semi-flexible cup-shaped sabot designed to hold numerous much smaller-diameter sub-projectiles (i.e. shots), and is launched out together as one payload-carrying projectile.
Ball and shot retained the ability to fire shotgun shells, whilst being able to fire useful bullets accurately at short ranges, in a gun of manageable weight. A typical 12 bore ball and shot gun weighed 7 to 8 lb (3.2 to 3.6 kg), whilst a fully rifled 12 bore rifle would weigh over more than 10 lb (4.5 kg).
