If you can use them, you can't do much better, but you could do a lot worse. Shoot them a lot to ensure proficiency with the tool and to vet the reliability of the tools. 20 gauge is the way to go right now, as that's still in stock. I don't know what kind of budget you have, but a 250 round case of 20 gauge shells for about 60 bucks would go a long way for some practice. Get some snap caps (dummy rounds) and go to a place with a safe backstop and NO LIVE AMMO around and practice loading, unloading, ejecting shells, etc. You can get those for cheap and they go a long way toward weapons handling.
When I say to ensure there is no live ammo around for dry fire practice and weapon handling, that comes from a loud experience from my past that involved a "snap cap" and a center channel speaker. They say the loudest sound in the world is "click" when there should have been a "boom." I venture that the second loudest is a "boom" when there should have been a "click."
