iqbal - If lead is not illegal in Pak - why would you want to use steel????

It has NO redeeming features - and if the truth ever got out here in Australia about it's crippling rate , Animal Liberationists (close relatives to the effing Environmentalists that instigated the lead ban!!) would be calling for it's ban too!

If you really want to try something exotic in your Beretta - try Remington's Hevi-Shot - being 10% more dense than lead (and 54% denser than steel!) it is supposed to outperform it.
