    go buy some steel shot for your 16, 20, 28 and 32 gauge, and grab a box of steel for the kids 410. then you will see the lack of confusion. ya cant get it. and because there is only a very small proportion of shooters using them (4% are sub gauges) there really is no point. also steel is bloody useless in a 12g can you imagine the performance out of a sub gauge?

    Pretty sure there is steel for a 20g, think NZhunter done a write up on using it a few years ago. iirc it was Kent
