Remington factory full and Fed Heavyweight #7's. Is that choke approved for heavyweight shot?

Last I checked those chokes were rated for lead only. That stuff ain't lead.

My Remington factory full choke is stamped for steel or lead.

It may not be lead but it is not steel shot it should be fine.

Absolutely, however, I was unsuccessful yesterday contacting Remington. Three phone calls, and was hung up on 3 separate times while on hold/being transferred.

To my memory, the choke is NOT stamped "lead" or "steel", but I'll verify tomorrow.
