I’m still loading 9.5’s in .410, have me a custom short-barrel 301 totally setup, and it is giving me plenty of pattern density to 45 yards so I had sorta considered the project done.

Always looking to tinker though it seems! Thanks in advance sir! I am. I killed a couple with that load in 2020, one at 47 yds, one at 38 yds. The jury is still out on what is best for the .410, but I tend to lean towards maximizing pattern density out to the point where the shot maxes out on energy. On paper, generally speaking, I'd say 10s are about optimal for the .410.
