Me again

Thanks for the info guys.

Another question.

Does steel shot react to choke constriction as lead does ?
I mean: with my BPS, using large shot (#2-BB) I used to get better patterns with my modified than my full choke.
With #4 they were about equal and with the smaller stuff (#5, #6) the full choke was tighter.
By the way, in the days of lead my best load for ducks/geese was a load of 1 1/2oz of #4 shot in Winchester hulls at about 1250fps. It just seemed to kill anything like lightning.
By the way, my BPS did not have screw-in chokes, I had three different barrels for it: 30in Full, 28in Modified and 26in improved cylinder. It was my do everything gun and loved it.
It is just way too expensive these days, it's at least double the price of the Remington.
