- The #4 lead payload is optimized for shotshell use, which means it is a specialized option rather than a standard bullet load.
- Packaged in 10-round reusable boxes, so it may be better suited to occasional use than high-volume shooting.
- The product description emphasizes longer range than conventional handgun shotshells, but it still remains a shotshell and should be treated as a close-range solution.
