non toxic shot safe for 8 ga ?

[Milton Starr]

i will say probably by the middle of next year i will try to get one .If i hit the lottery i will have a westely richards drop lock ,take the rest of the money to buy a machine shop to make sxs 8 ga . You seen the cheap stoeger sxs shotguns . I wonder what it takes to start your own small arms company cant be to hard if you only make sxs 8 ga's either since they are obselete legally . I should take a machine class at college

sorry i got off topic .I noticed that on parkers the area that behind the barrels dont know the name for it but they are 3x thicker than other sxs of the time .I thought that steel shot was unsafe for damascus barrels ? or any barrels made before 1950's ?

Stick with us Milton.... there's a lot to learn from these folks here.

There are other 'Damascus friendly' shot choices that steel can't compete with for weight (down-range energy) and are truly non-toxic.

I like this website the most compared to other forums maybe because of the the 8 ga's here lol
