[QUOTE="Greenhornet_au, post: 487806, member: 8767"] The round insert thing is just the design for the primer of shotgun shells, the shot shell bases are weak in construction and the outer "insert" is there to support the primer and base against the pressures of firing. It also uses a different igniter/primer compound than that of rifle primers You can get, 12G brass shells that use standard 'rifle primers' that press into a more substantial base like that of rifle cartridges.
