    By the manual all current 1300's should be shot shot OK. IMO it's a good idea to drop a choke or two when shooting steel shot.

    If your shotgun patterns lead shot best with full choke, drop down to modified, if modified drop to IC. Steel will not deform as much in the barrel so it throws a tighter pattern then lead (all things considered equal).
