Very nice, and will do pretty much anything that you want a shotgun to do. As regards steel cartridges, I have been using the Eley Grand Prix steel for the last few months. These use an Eco Wad that quickly breaks down, but at the same time protects the barrels. I have been using them in my 100 year old Alex Martin and my 50 plus year old AyA Coral. Bird gets up, swing through and bang, it falls dead. We haven't noticed any real difference to lead cartridges on normal walked and driven type phaesant / duck shooting. Good things also being said about Gamebore Regal.

There are plenty of better guns to shoot high speed steel through - these are more magnum type cartridges for longer range and wildfowling type use. Not the sort of thing that is needed in traditional game gun. If you are shooting very high phaesants you will be using a heavier gun for bigger cartridges, ditto for wildfowl - I use a Franchi Affinity on the marshes with 3" high speed steel - ducks and geese fall down dead.
