Default RE: Steel Shot

ORIGINAL: Lorge

What are your thoughts on this ammo/gun combination? Let's say the only shotgun available to use for turkey hunting was a single shot 20 gauge with a fixed modified choke. Would a 3 inch steel shot #2 be a good choice to take down a turkey. I know it's not your typical or ideal setup, but would it work?
That's exactsame gun that my wife (small lady) uses; an NEF 22" barrel Youth gun. She gets VERY GOOD PATTERNS with two loads:

Remington® Hevi•Shot 3" Mag 1¼oz #6 shot
(does not pattern # 4 or 5 Hevi•Shot as well) and.........

Federal® Grand Slam 3" Mag 1oz #5 shot
(do not pattern #4 or 6 shot as well)
