    Default .410 question

    I've got a Springfield Model 67 .410 which I'm pretty sure has a full choke.

    I'm pretty well versed in shotguns but not the .410 caliber.

    Can I shoot steel shot through a .410 full choke?

    Probably not a good idea

    That?s my feeling as well but I have no facts to base it on.

    I have an old 410 with a fixed full choke and I wouldn?t chance damaging it with steel shot.

    Besides, hunting ducks and geese with a 410 just seems silly.

    If for some reason you really want to use a pop gun on geese, get hevishot.
