Default Question on steel shot

I have a few questions concerning steel shot. I would not shoot it in my Parkers, but I have a 20 gauge RbL that I can use.
I have an opportunity to join a quail hunt but the requirement is to use Non lead shot.
I would like opinions on using steel shot. What size shot? Would I be better off going with bismuth or something else?
Anyone have some for sale or know where I can buy a few boxes?
Thanks Phil

Quite pricey but I’d consider a couple boxes of these . https://www.rstshells.com/out-of-sto...-load-box.aspx

I thought I’d found you some RST’s loaded with Nice Shot at $85 a box but they’re oughtta stock . Believe I’d look around for some Bismuth 7 , 7 1/2 or 8 .
