Choke for Steel Shot

Hey Uplanders!

I have been hunting a preserve that requires steel shot, however my shotgun, a new beretta with insert chokes only has one choke for steel shot. Anyone know what would happen if I used the other chokes or where I could find some chokes that could handle the steel?

Is this a matter of safety or pattern or what?

Thanks,
corey

I'm not positive, but I believe using steel shot in a choke not designed for it will damage the choke, possibly the gun. You can find more chokes online, through your manufacturer, or even look at your local sportsman shop.
