Ammo for 410 lever 20" cylinder bore

[Herath]

What shot loads and slugs or buckshot are working the best as far as patterns and accuracy?

[Herath]

I have had good patterns ar 25 yards with Federal 000 buckshot loads(cluster of 3 at poa).Have not tried many shot loads yet.

I use mostly Winchester #4 shot and slugs. Accurate for my purposes.

I have never had usable accuracy from slugs in a 410, about the only use I have found for them is dispatching livestock at point blank range.
00 or 000 works very well for me out of my 20" coach gun 4 or 5 pellets depending on the 2.5 or 3" hull and patterns around 8" at 25y.

I use the slugs 35-40 yds out on nutria from my Mossberg 500E long barrel.

Which brand slugs are working best?

[Herath]

WW aa 8's and 7.5's give good 25 and 30 yd patterns.Working on reloads with various shot both plated and regular..Right now looking for minute of squirrel patterns. Need towork on 6 shot and 4 shot loads.Have hardened and Cu plated shot to try.

I'd consider a good pattern out of a cylinder bore 410 using 8's and 7.5's at 25 and 30 yds to be exceptional performance .... looking forward to following your load development

I am glad to see such good results from all the 410 loads. One ? I think that the 410 slug is only about 90 grains and slows down very fast that is the weight of a .32 S&W Long slug that I wouldn't consider for anything much bigger than a fire ant. Some of you that shoot these educate me .

Slugs look good for coyote within range.
