I use those as well, but in a Maverick 88. 24 inch barrel with IMC.I run 3" Kent Fasteel loads with 1-1/4oz of #2 steel shot through my Weatherby SA-08 which has a 26" barrel and an IMC (Improved Modified Choke) installed.
It slays ducks over "big water" with ease.... the little bastiges!
But that's in 12ga.
If your using Steel shot, you want to go with a Water Fowl load and choke, usually #2 shot high speed steel!I'm planning to dispatch some born-to-die pheasants WA Fish and Wildlife plants, figuring 2-3/4", 3/4oz, #6 should do the job if I do my part. I've just never used steel before, don't have access to a patterning board, need to tap the NWFA knowledge base.
