The boy got a Rossie 45lc/410 and put a red dot on it. What a fun gun. It shoots my LC 303gr bullets like a champ, you DO have to have a good grip on it.  He got some factory 410 shells in a few different loads, they shot but not very well. SO he had some 303 brass and "Fire formed" them to 410, there is no load info. He had some **** powder and loaded ** gr put on an into card and a fiber wad Then #8 shot. he then puts in a 45 Alunimun gas check upside down them a crimp, I don't know how or what. but it looks good.   It shoots the best pattern of any of it.  ------------- Remember: Four boxes keep us free ,the soap box, the ballot box, the jury box, AND the cartridge box |

great idea to make Brass .410 shotshells. even better when they pattern well. sounds the "special" .45 Colt loads shoot very good from it. ------------- Irish Bird Dog NRA Life/Endowment 2nd Amendment Supporter |

How difficult is it to get 303 Brit brass? ------------- “ The IQ and the life expectancy of the average American recently passed each other in opposite directions.” |

I don't know the boy got 50 from someplace or someone. 410 brass is out of stock all over. ------------- Remember: Four boxes keep us free ,the soap box, the ballot box, the jury box, AND the cartridge box |

That looks like a handful. Is it a smoothbore or is it rifled? Is there such a thing as .410 slugs? ------------- I have always considered myself to be quite the bullshitter, But ocasionally it is nice to sit back and listen to a true professional......So, Carry on. |

Yes it is rifled for an inch or two otherwise it's an illegal, to short shotgun. Yes there are 410slugs and 00 buck shot too. The funny thing is we can get 303 brass when we can't get 410 brass hulls. ------------- Remember: Four boxes keep us free ,the soap box, the ballot box, the jury box, AND the cartridge box |
