I don't think any other company manufactures BBB shots except shaktiman.
Earlier there were problems with shaktiman ammo but now their quality have improved.
They use imported primers and their cartridges are quite powerful. Although it is advised to clean your shotgun barrels immediately after firing them.

Did you use shaktiman ammo ? Did you face any problem ? Or are you just beleiving what others are saying.

Hi,
I have fired 12 shots several times, my shakthiman is as good as new. The problem may have been due to the particular weopon. Better luck this time you get one.
