longbeardfever4ever Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 i dont know about the steel shot, but if you are talking about a shotgun, always go with a turkey choke !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strut10 Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 I would probably opt for #4 steel if I absolutely had to shoot steel. You'll want to limit your shots to no more than 30 yards, as steel loses energy and velocity very quickly. Also.......find yourself an extended "steey extra full" choke tube. Pattern the load same as lead. Just remember.........steel patterns very tightly and uniformly..........even past its useful distance. NO MORE THAN 30 YARDS!!!!! If you're in an area that requires non-toxic shot, you may want to try bismuth or Hevi-13 or some other non-toxic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pointing_dogs_rule Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 MAKE SURE the choke tubes are for STEEL and not "LEAD ONLY". good luck to all the dog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EKYhunter Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 Make sure steel is legal for turkeys in your state first. Here in KY it is not. Just curious, but why steel? There's much better options available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
