What if a guy was to carefully open up a 3" high brass .410 shotshell, pour out the shot, place mylar, then pour in the correct amount of TSS shot and buffer, then crimp it in a MEC Jr?

Stupid or feasible?

You could load 3 up and send it off to be pressure tested

The .410 TSS shells are pretty cheap compared to fingers. popcorn

Lead builds pressure differently than tss. Lead is softer than tss.

A lot of these folks are probably guessing, just as I would be, but this guy is not! If Hal says don’t do it, I’d heed that advice.

Hey Hal, you remember that guy on OG long ago that made up a Hevishot recipe and shared it with a bunch of folks? Somebody finally tested it and it was over 17,000 PSI. smile

But as far as I know, it didn't damage any of the guns. It takes a lot to blow up a shotgun unless you have a barrel obstruction, but why take the chance? You need to do everything just right to hunt turkeys with a .410, and even then you might not get a very effective pattern. Buy some shot from Hal and get a proven recipe, and then test the pattern. Good luck with it!

Make sure it's a old school single barrel if you try this, but I'd suggest buying a couple of 5 rd boxes. 1 thing I don't do is cut corners on turkeys and in the end the ammo is the cheapest part of the hunt.

Shells can be readily available and easily bought, fingers not so much. laugh
