Winchester 410 Bore 2 1/2” 1/2 oz 8 Shot

Post by Sir Henry » Sat Jan 17, 2026 2:08 pm

I just came from Wally World and saw some 410 sporting clay shells on the shelf. I bought all 325 rounds they had out. My philosophy is buy when you see it not when you need it.

That's around what I have paid, more or less for similar rounds the last few years.

Well unless you are shooting a lot of skeet or sporting clays with your .410, you should be good for a while.

Nice to get the 6’s. I’m sure there is a grouse or two in WI.

Smart move. We had a hard time finding 410 for a good while. It's still scarce and expensive when we do. Miss T loves the 410 pump I gave her for her Birthday a couple years ago, but she still hunts deer with the 12 gauge, with the slug barrel and rifle sights. :)

I made a rare trip to a Walmart Monday. Their ammunition shelves were well stocked. There was ample .410. I didn't get any. When our state mandated backgrounds for ammunition sales, I only buy at my favorite shop now. It's just more convenient.

There might even be three. With all the water we have lots of birds of all kinds.

I have a few 410 slugs. They might be good for coyotes.

Glad we don’t have checks around here. Is there a limit? Can you order from out of state?

I'm trying out reloading .410 by hand, without a reload press. I want to reuse the petal folds, but it's a challenge to do so by hand without messing it up. I did buy a rolled fold bit that could be used on failed petal folds after cutting them off. Using the bit with a drill press.

As far as I know there are no limits.
No, you have to purchase in person, no mail order ammunition anymore. You can buy reloading components through the mail. $2.oo fee to the state for each transaction. If the computer comes back delay, you have to leave it there. That's a pain. I only deal with my favorite guys up north now.
