Henry lever action 410

[ford4wd08]

I found my lever action .410's just don't have much practical range with the 2 and 1/2 inch shells and improved cylinder bore. They both though really shoot slugs great, maybe the Henry will also.

I wonder if the barrel of a Henry 410 is designed so it can be retrofitted for choke tubes ?

The 24" barrel version comes with a full choke tube that can be interchanged with others.

very good to hear .... I'm not a fan of any shotgun that isn't built to use choke tubes

I am not particularly interested in one of these, but I am curious as to how you can put a plug in it to limit the capacity to three shells? Does it come with two different magazine tubes?

you can order a modified magazine tube from Henry .... unknown if it comes with one

Tom from Henry told me in an email that the .410 would be a smooth bore and take 3" shells. If it is 2.5" shells I am not interested.
Update: received a follow up email from Tom @ Henry and the only .410 shotgun that will be capable of 3" shells is the single shot version all others will be 2.5" shells.

I had heard about the three inch first and then the truth about the lever 410. Sorry but nothing to see here.

Take a look at the ballistics of a 410 slug. The .327 Big Boy will do a better job.

thanks for following up with accurate info, that made my decision even easier .... a 410 was not near the top of my wish list but with it not being chambered for 3" shells, it is off the list .... that makes it easy to move on

Specifically says 2.5" shells only.

Thanks for the updated information on the .410 shotgun and the shells.

Guess it is back to .357/38 with a red dot on it for fast target acquisition. Just have to decide weather I want the 16.5" or 20" barrel. All weather finish or blued.

That would be a tough decision for me too.
