Shotkam Posted August 23, 2020 Report Share Posted August 23, 2020 I can find nothing online about using steel shot in my 20G OU Investarm Huspower. The barrel stops 7" short of the end of the moderator, which is why they sell it with 3/4 and full choke. When eventually lead usage diminishes, I would like to know that I can still use the gun with steel. They recommend not using plastic shot cups in the Hushpower. Any replies appreciated.

Guest cookoff013 Posted August 23, 2020 Report Share Posted August 23, 2020 There is no shortage of steel shot or steel or iron. Its rubbish spouted by manufacturers. Most if not all steel shot is made for shot peening in that industry. Its made to the correct hardness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

captainhastings Posted August 25, 2020 Report Share Posted August 25, 2020 I bought a hushpower mod for me 12g and they said no to steel. Some thing to do with the wad. As its a semi I would be be able to check it was cleared so haven't tried it either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
