Can regular steel shot be used in a 1964 Browning Sweet 16?

Thanks for any info,

I wouldn't. I'm quite sure it's not compatible with steel. Either get a new gun or pony up around $250-300 for 100 rounds of bismuth or Kent Tungsten Matrix.

You could get away with it with an Imp Cylder choke and no bigger than #2 shot.

I answered this in your duplicate thread in Gunsmithing with a quote from Browning.
