Default choke question

Will the new Hevi shot choke tubes cycle steel shot also with no issue to choke or barrel.

thanks,
Steve

Most hevi-shot chokes designate that they are indeed approved for steel. Just check 'em.

BE sure and read on the package. If you are looking at a cost
effective shell try the HeviMetal shells with the HeviShot
tubes. They are in a word: LETHAL

Or how about vise-versa can hevi shot be fired out of a choke made for steel shot?

Thanks,
Steve

Yes. Hevi-shot is softer than steel, so it is safe for steel-approved barrels and chokes.

AND IT works great. Check out the HeviShot choke tubes
as well. You won't be disappointed.
