The manufacturer says we should NOT. I'm not 100% sure why but that is what Benelli says.

Is it okay to shoot steel shot or hard shot from a 1950's JC Higgins 12 gauge?
To my knowledge, steel shot is a relatively new development, and it is necessary to use it in shotguns of recent manufacture that were built to handle it. In my opinion, the steel in the barrel of a 1950 vintage shotgun, which was 30 or 40 years before the advent of steel shot, would be too soft. Accelerated wear would probably be the best you could expect. Using steel shot in a gun that old would be like using rocket fuel in a vintage propeller plane. It just wasn't built to handle it. That's my opinion, anyway. Good luck.
Can steel shot be used in a Model 12 Winchester with a nickel steel barrel?
I had the same question so I bought a box of Winchester steel shells [#7 shot target loads 1200 fps] and shot them through my M12 nickel steel barrel with a Briley Mod. Choke tube. The plastic build up was more than I expected but after a good cleaning the barrel still looks good, no damage using target loads and they broke targets. I am going to shoot more through that barrel and keep checking.
Can you fire steel shot from a Baikal 12 bore Model 628 year 1985?
Hi, I don't know what kind of Baikal you're talking about. I bought a Baikal side by side and it came with choke tubes. Later, by reading the manual, I found out that I could not shoot steel through the tubes that came with the gun. I have to order special tubes if I want to shoot steel. Both Baikals I have owned proved to be a bad investment - both malfunctioned bigtime right out of the box. In my opinion Junk. Scheels in Sioux Falls have quit handeling Baikals because of such a high complaint and return rate. Good hunting.
How much damage does a 100kW laser do Would it be powerfull enough to stop a tank or shoot down a jet What would happen if it was shot at a solid rock surface or a person?
I know a 4KW gas laser can cut 1 1/4" into average grade steel. Assuming you're refering to this type of laser then 100kw gas laser should be able to cut into about 2 feet of steel. Yikes. Imagine if it were a 100kw chemical laser!!
