My practice is to shoot Bismuth in my doubles with a full choke and steel only in the ones with modified or more open chokes. Browning does not recommend steel in any of their Belgian guns. I agree with Larry on the Japanese guns...Geo

I should have added that I do not shoot steel in any of my damascus guns. In addition I only shoot steel in post WW-2 age guns. That is probably conservative but that's what I do for what its worth.
