Why does $\iota_4^2 \in H^8(K(\mathbb Z/2,4);\mathbb Z/2)$ not come from $H^8(K(\mathbb Z/2,...
It is true, and follows from results of Browder on the mod 2 Bockstein spectral sequence for $K(\mathbb{Z}/2,4)$. (We can replace $4$ by any even integer $k$ and conclude that $\iota_k^2$ ia not the r …

Bockstein homomorphism and Square Operations: Their consistency formulas
I'm not sure if this is what you are asking, but you get useful relations among the Bockstein operators whenever you have a map between short exact coefficient sequences. For example, using the map of …

Steenrod operations on cohomology of grassmannians
As in Prasit's comment, the action of the Steenrod squares on the Stiefel-Whitney classes of any vector bundle are given by Wu's formula
$$
Sq^i(w_j) = \sum_{t=0}^i \binom{j+t-i-1}{t} w_{i-t} w_{j+t}. …
