410 Fun

[Vaquero]

410s have traditionally been choked full. Finding one that isn't can be a challenge. Fun to shoot, no matter how they are choked, though. Had a lot of fun with a 410 barrel on my Contender pistols, back I the day.

What about the double?
The left side definitely has a tighter pattern.

I have found my favorite is always the one I’m holding at the time.

That’s a very impressive line up of 410’s.

I'd guess modified and full on a double. All the single barrel guns I've owned, though, were full.

One of the most memorable 410s I've used was a vintage Savage 24 with a 22 LR over a 410 with the button selector on the side of the receiver, so definitely an old vintage. We kids on the farm got rid of a lot of rats down in the corn silo with that old gun and some of those cornfed rats were huge.

Speaking of those old Savage 24s, when one comes up at auction in this area, people go nuts on the bidding. Never see one on the shelf for sale in our local gunshops or I'd buy one.

Now all we gotta do is find some 410's. NCG has me wanting to pull out my 410/22 and have some fun.

I would like to see a range report. A 410/22WMR is on my bucket list.

[North Country Gal]

If you do find one, better grab it while you can.

I haven’t found one in ten years of looking.

The only place that I have had any luck with has been online.
Is your's one of the Savage 24's that NCG mentioned?
