tungsten or tungsten iron shot maybe cos tungsten is a part of armour piercing ammo not as good as deplete uranium but hell in a pinch it,l do
shit most steel wont even penetrate birds reliably let alone armour.

best thing would be F&G to bring back lead shot. as the law stands yes steel is banned maybe unintentionally but it is still illegal even though the coppers say they wont prosecute you for using it maybe , but if it suits i wouldnt put it past them to backtrack and use this to get at a few people.

yes to rely on the polices god graces would be foolish.
still I don't see shot mentioned specificly am I to use my 20 gauge as a softball bat instead of shooting it?
