i have a winchester model 2200 that i got from my dad.
on the gun it says : 2200-12g-2 3/4 chamber-winchester proof steel-full.
my question is can i shoot steel through it even though its a fixed full choke?

I don't think so but you can go to a local gunsmith and get them to bore it out for you,or maybe cut the choke out off the barrell and make a new one.
Best pattern and choke is modified for steel.
Full will likely be too much constriction so could burst barrel or ring/split the choke creating a weakness.
Often discussed here so you can search other threads but I wouldn't shoot steel.

That means that it is Winchester proof steel barrel with a full choke. That doesn't mean it is steel capable.
Take it to a good gunsmith and have it bored to modified as we discussed earlier.
