I will be down that way later in the year and may have a look in at this gun shop. Still won't be using steel in my English guns though. Will use Standard 2 3/4" steel in an old 3 inch magnum BSA that I had bored to 1/2 x 1/2 without too much fear but there the line will be drawn. I bought a French O/U and a Winchester SX4 for when I need to use steel; both steel shot magnum proof. I will be interested to see how the 2 1/2" steel shot ammo goes as it will have to go through exhaustive testing and Proof tests. However I doubt it will have much stopping power except at moderate range. Time will tell! Lagopus…..
