Single shot shotgun

Post by popdad » Sun May 02, 2021 7:11 pm

For those of you that own one how do you still like it? I"m eyeing a 12ga in steal for myself. Any regrets, another words the "Honey moon Is over."

Not a thing wrong with them. They are easy to care for light to carry and I believe they will make you a better shot because you only have one.

In all my years hunting if you don't get the game on the first shot their gone. I'm looking for light and low maintenance and reliability.

I just got one in 20ga. I like it. Beautiful stock. Very nimble.

I shot the single shot 20ga yesterday and found out it doesn't like Challenger shells. It would eject unfired shells, but fired shells would get stuck. No problems with other brands.

PB Snooker, Look at the shells that won't eject. Do they have a mark on the brass where the extractor makes contact? I had a brand new Winchester single barreled 20 Ga. many years ago that would not eject fired shells. It went to the Winchester repair station and they milled a small amount from the length of the ejector and that cured the problem.

Travlin,I threw the shells out, but next time I will examine them more closely. It ejects other brands fine. Challenger brass must be softer or thinner and expand when fired,getting stuck.

I handled a Henry 410 just this afternoon. Very nice, appears well made - but seems a bit heavy for a single shot 410.

Got one in 20 gauge a couple of weeks ago, and it is already a proven quail slayer. Classy little shotgun.

I ended up sending my 20ga back to the factory . It would no longer ejects spent shells (many manufacturers). About a 2 week turnaround. They replaced the ejector, ejector spring and lubed it. I put about 75 shells through it today and it was flawless. Love Henry's and their warranty.

I have a couple SS's an Old Savage 12 ga. and a Turkish made 410.
Both fun and light.

I shot the H015-410 the other day. I patterned with #8 shot at 25 yards. I couldn't tell much difference from full, modified and skeet chokes. I know 410's pattern terribly. It will be fun on the easier,short clay courses. Now the slug test. This gun is surprisingly accurate with slugs and without a rear sight. I was hitting a torso size target at 100 yards. A 10" plate at 50 yards. And 12" tall bowling pin targets at 25 yards. ATI slugs were used. BTW, this is a nimble, beautiful gun.

One other thing. Some of my other 410's have problems ejecting high brass shells. No problems with the H015-410.

I am glad that your gun shoots so well. Truth be known 410 slugs aren't ballistically very impressive but the accuracy that you got with them is impressive.
