Default Steel Shot in Parkers

A person who is open minded might want to look at the Tom Roster article about using steel shot that is in the latest issue of Shooting Sportsman.

Some time ago, I had cited Roster's determinations about steel shot being fully encapsulated by modern shot cups and prevented from barrel contact. To put it mildly, my statements about the Roster findings were not well received and were met with comments about mental competance and whether I should be institutionalized , but now we have Roster making the comments himself in public print rather than me saying what he had said privately.

My earlier comments were limited to the barrel wear/erosion issue, and not whether a person could or should shove the extreme heavy high speed sky buster anti aircraft cartridges in his precious Parker.

Food for thought.
