Question Gun question #2

Out here in Cali it has become state law banning all lead shot from hunting and shooting. It is going into effect a little at a time. In a few years it will be in full enforcement.

My question, I bought a Remington Wing master in 12Ga in 1972, it is full choke. I have heard that if I shoot steel shot threw it I will damage the barrel or me. I've been thinking of getting a new shotgun then was shocked to see the prices of the guns I like. So now my plan is getting a new barrel for my shotgun. Thinking of a modified barrel or how about one with choke tubs? What are the advantages or disadvantages of a choke tub?

Thanks

You are going to pay more for a new barrel than the original gun.Anyone who know's gun's will tell you they had rather have your's than a new express with tube's.That being said your gun wont be any use to you in cal.Keep your gun in original cond and look into the express model's.You should be able to get a new one in the low 300.00's.

I bought a new tube barrel for my Belgin Browning Light 12 back several years ago. the barrel is a little heavier and I can tell when I shoot it. I'm used to the old lighter barrels. I caht it squat with the new barrel.
