I have used a 12 ga, BSS for a lot of years with steel 3s and 4s for ducks. It is my go to duck gun, actually. It is a 30 incher, which originally had M and F chokes. Since it did not have a barrel selector, and I wanted to shoot it in S x S sporting clays competition, I had the left barrel opened to the exact same constriction and the right, which was .018".

I have shot a lot of steel through it with no barrel or choke damage whatsoever.
