When the market demands steel loads safe for old doubles the major maunfacturers will develop, produce, and sell them. Thicker wads to slip through tight chokes that also will not release shot until they leave the barrel will be safe for our cherished SxS's.

Increasing the velocity to compensate for the steel pellets lower density and retained energy will be hard on 100 year old stocks! I do think that some smart engineer will figure it out when there is sufficient demand to justify investment in the research and development, and production of such ammunition.
