the thing abut shotgun barrels is that the firing pin on a rifle is much more pointed than a shotgun. hence it tends to pierce primers. w/w shotshells have the hardest primers and i use strictly them and haven't had a piercing problem

That makes little difference on a cape gun because they are fitted with proper pins on the shot barrel, and proper pins on the rifle barrel. I have severl hundred rounds through both barrels on each of the two Cape guns I own, and never a problem with either! The other one is a V. Haffner 20GA shot barrel/58 Berdan carbine in the rifle barrel.
