Today's trip to the LGS.........

Post by fortyshooter » Mon Aug 21, 2023 11:28 am

A good selection of 410 was on the shelf and picked up Winchester SP primers just to add to the stash. Get them when you see them!
Oh and something big happened in 410 world this morning 8-)

I guess those 410 slugs would be ok at a close range.
If I needed a one, I'd just as soon grab one of the 45 colts.
Good score though.
Now, where's that new shooter? πŸ€”πŸ™‚

Yep a 45 slug better than a 410 but picked up a box just to have it around. Yes the single shot finally made it to the P.O. and just waiting
for store owner to pick it up and bring it to his store here. Was getting ready for a 40 mile drive to Cabelas to pick up a 410 Stoeger Coach gun and then checked the tracking and found it made it.

We are breathlessly awaiting the arrival of your new addition. I have a Stoeger Coach in 12 that miss T bought me years ago as a get well gift after a major surgery. Beautiful. :) Well, for the price point... :lol:

Yeah it has been a wild ride tracking the thing and got a call it will be at the store tomorrow for pick up.

Have the 20-gauge Coach and after a bit of polishing the hinge points runs real smooth now and shoots great. I like the double triggers too.

Good score, cant say I am a fan of solids in the 410, I much prefer OO/SG's. They pattern fairly well in mine at shorter range, 3" load contains 5 so both barrels from my stoeger coach gun is 1 more pellet than a standard 12ga load.

The 410 has been my deer gun for last few years. Since about 2016. The Winchester slugs are what I use. Haven't missed one yet. But only drawback me using the 410 is range. All my stands are set up for max distance 25-30 yards. My Grandson says I should just use a bow.

At those ranges, I'd opt for one of the pistolas. ;)

Reason went to 410 is shoulder problems. Tell Grandson if I could draw a bow, I might get one of my deer rifles back I let him have. I've got used to the 410 though. I've seen the federal top gun ammo before, but never shot any. Been shooting Rio's lately.

I hope your .410 comes soon forty. You should pick up the .410 Stoeger Coach gun too. I have the 12 ga and .410. I'd like to find a 20 ga too. They are just fun and handy in my opinion.
I'm glad to hear that .410 slugs work on deer graywolf. I always wondered.
