Wardens don't need a degree in metallurgy or a bore mic. Many of them carry a small device that passes electrical current through a shell when it is inserted in the device. The device measures the resistance and indicates lead or steel. Niceshot and other "hevi" metal shot can fool it and register "lead". (Ask Destry, he was glad he had his lawyer at his side for that one). I think it takes up to a 10 bore shell. Now if an 8 bore doesn't fit in it, one might be prepared for some questions...Sir, what gauge shotshell is this?
