You keep piddling with .410's, different loads, different guns....and you'll learn that ALL .410's are picky compared to a 20 or 12. Finnicky as hell! Not using buffer in your loads (that was a Hal suggestion) is about the best thing you can do to make a .410 more consistent shot to shot. Last edited by JUGHEAD; 07/02/19 07:15 AM.

I had about given up on the 410 game before I bought the 301T. I had gotten pretty aggravated with the 2 or 3 other guns I had tried.

I have played with 4 or 5 of the 410’s and each one likes something a lil different. I currently have an o/u I am setting up for my daughter. I had a 127 in 10” pattern with 9’s, but to be honest it shot a 107 with 9.5’s that looks more consistent. Last edited by Jstocks; 07/02/19 07:14 PM. Reason: Changed spelling

Overall length of the gun is much shorter than I thought it’d be with that barrel length. Got it for the kids but I’ll probably try to kill a turkey or 3 with it

Would love to see an offering in the $30-45 range.

The guy at jebs told me they used the same amount of material on the .410 chokes as they do the 12 gauge chokes. I said “you must have a big scrap department.” He didn’t like that lol
