I always hear that older guns don't have barrels that are designed for use with steel shot. What i don't hear is any explanation as to why other than that they didn't make steel shot back then.
So the question is: is it really unsafe to shoot steel shot in a shotgun made in say the 1960s or 1970s and do different chokes make a difference?
I can't imagine that a modified choke would be tight enough to constrict a load of #4 steel when duck hunting.
