Ruger 10/22 with shotshell ammo
I was with my buddy shootin my ruger 10/22 off when i decided to test these
CCI shotshell ammo (which is expensive)

I was pretty angry when i shot at a full can of soda and the bbs just deflected like it was bullet proof.

Not only from that disappointment did i find out, when using this ammo in my gun(which is semi auto) it didnt reload and eject the shell. It tried to but just didnt have the blowback that a regular shell does.

there goes 5 dollars down the drain......

Has this happened to anyone else before??

Those Shotshells are made for bolt action guns ,not semi-autos because there is no bullet "Mass" for recoil operation. They are made to kill Rats and mice at fairly close range without causing damage to surrounding stuff.

They will also work in revolvers and Single shot guns like the Thompson Contender.
Good luck !
