They have identical performance. It's just a matter of which one you prefer to use. I find lead more handy because it's cheap and works fine.

Which one hits harder when you shoot it Steel Copper or Lead Shot?

Lead. Lead is denser so it has a higher ballistic coefficient. This may sound like gibberish but to explain, because the lead is heavier by volume than steel it is "heavier" vs. it's diameter, in other words for the same size shot it has more weight which will do two things. Lead will maintain it's velocity farther down range because the steel has more wind resistance. And because lead "weighs" more and is traveling faster downrange, it will penetrate the target more.
