Steel Shot With Old Gun?
Hey, I have an old winchester model 21 side by side shotgun. My question is if I will be able to shoot steel loads out of the gun? and also does it matter what choke you use when shooting steel shot? thanks a lot.

RE: Steel Shot With Old Gun?
Jason I wouldn't recommend that you use steel shot in your gun. Older barrels weren't proofed for the much harder steel shot so you could ruin your barrels. Just to be sure though you may want to contact Winchester and ask. Don't shoot steel shot before you do.
