Im back for more info this time on steel shot

[skeet]

Just a suggestion from a shotshell reloader. I did load steel shot....the bottom line is it ain't worth it. Costs a fair amount..and you can't equal the factory loadings for the most part...and to top it all off, you probably won't shoot that many shells to make it all worthwhile. I guided waterfowl hunters and didn't find it financially worthwhile and the shells for the most part were far outstripped by factory loads. This coming from a person who truly beleives in reloading..especially for shotshells. And I really shot lots of steel at waterfowl...from the 10 through the 20. and loaded the 10 and 12 ga with steel. Loading the larger sizes of shot required for ducks and geese is a real PITA. BTW 4s aren't really adequate for pheasant ducks or geese..unless within 25 to 30 yds at the most..in my opinion..preferably less
