I've got something similar (it's all metal, with a zerk). IMO, it's messy and
wasteful (and you'd better clean it thoroughly before use or you could be
forcing dust and grit into the bearings). Also, disk brake wheel bearing grease
is a bit thick and sticky for a gun (it's usually sold in tubs).
Invest instead in disposable nitrile gloves and pack by hand.

I see Harbor freight has a bearing packer, pn 97489-1RGH for $3.99
These allow you to use a grease gun to pack the wheel bearing - as long as
the gun has the right type of grease in it.
