stumacher Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 (edited) In short, a high performance steel shot shell should only be used in guns with the steel shot proof mark, the Fleur de Lis. I have recently wondered this myself, as i can't see this stamped on my browning ultra xs. But there is a cert. in my owners manual saying the gun is steel proof. So i won't panic about selling im gun! As standard steel shot shells (meeting CIP standards, not SAAMI standards. Remember the guns were proofed to CIP standards) can be used in guns not proofed for steel shot if the following conditions are met: Pressure as published for standard shells is not exceeded A certain shot size is not exceeded The choke is no greater than modified The shot velocity is not exceeded The Momentum generated is not exceeded Edited April 4, 2010 by stumacher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
