I prefer Hi Brass shells as opposed to steel. Brass is a much more 'slippery' metal.

The two shells shown have steel bases. I think that my prejudice is widespread.

Those steel bases work just fine in double barrel shotguns.

I recommend trying some Federal Hi Brass shells and see if a better quality shell doesn't solve your problem. Note that "brass" shells are coated with brass nowadays, not pure brass. Still slippery!

I'm sorry your gun won't run any old ammunition, but that's life.
