In the past I've had good luck using Kent TM #5 loads which I haven't been able to find for 2 years. Last year I used Rio Bismuth #4 with success, but this year cannot find any (although I do see some outlets have #6 shot available). Question. I hunt with 2 Stevens 311a 16 ga, shotguns, one of which I've have the chokes opened to Skeet and IC. Might that one be safe to use with steel shot?

WELL, if it were my gun, I would shoot steel in this properly modified shotgun.

RIO makes a 16 gauge #4 Bismuth

Call them
