I was running a search on the forum, but could not find similar subject.

Gun: Mossberg 500 A, cylinder bore, 12 GA, 3 inch chamber.

Question: Can it use steel shot?
If not, can a barrel be replaced, for steel shot approved bbl?
 
A huge amount of steel shot has been run through that shotgun in the US. Yes, you can shoot steel through it, especially with cylinder choke.
 
Thank you , boys.

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.

Nice one there. I guided for mulies and elk for about 10 or so years in northern New Mexico.

Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.
