For starters you need to decide if you want a 2-3/4" gun or a 3" gun. You can shoot anything up to #2 steel thru a modified or more open fixed choke barrel. If it has choke tubes, just make sure the choke tube is okay for steel. Remington makes a flush Full choke steel rated tube and it says for lead or steel on the tube. A Remington 3" chamber Steel Shot barrel will fit on any 1100, and Remington used to say you could shoot 3" steel loads with a 2-3/4" receiver, and I did. I shot one on my 1963 1100 for many years with no issues. I still use an 1100 for waterfowl. I retired the original to clays duty and got a new waterfowl gun. Found a mint 1966 Magnum model and put the steel shot barrel on that one. Good luck.
