About .410 Bore Ammunition
The .410 shotgun shell originates from the United Kingdom and was introduced in 1874 by the Eley Brothers. While some shooters may refer to .410 as .410 Gauge, this is inaccurate as the proper term is .410 Bore. Like other shotshells, the .410 features a straight rimmed case which holds the loadingβs shot. The .410 is noticeably narrower and slimmer than shotgun staples such as the 12 gauge and 20 gauge, giving it a distinct appearance. Due to its small size, the .410 shotshell holds a smaller payload and yields a tamer recoil impulse than its larger counterparts. The relatively light recoil of the .410 makes it a good shotgun round for first time shooters to become acquainted with as it will not punish them in the same way a 12 gauge would. This is particularly true for younger shooters and those with smaller frames. Like other shotgun rounds, the .410 can be found in birdshot, buckshot, slug, and other common types of shotgun loadings.Types of .410 Bore Loadings
- Birdshot:These loadings feature multiple small projectiles. These types of loadings are well-suited for bird hunting, pest control, casual clay shooting, and recreational shooting. These loadings tend to be some of the most common loadings one will find on the market.
- Buckshot:These loadings feature multiple large projectiles. These projectiles are considerably larger than the projectiles found in birdshot and target loadings. There are also some buckshot loadings which feature more projectiles and utilize smaller projectiles. These types of loadings are well-suited for hunting use and for self-defense.
- Slugs:These types of loadings feature single, solid projectiles rather than multiple projectiles. As these loadings feature solid projectiles, one does not have to consider a potential pattern or spread of multiple projectiles. Slugs are often found in the form of rifled and sabot loadings. Rifled slugs are intended for use in smoothbore barrels while sabot slugs are intended for use in rifled barrels. Ultimately, slugs allow a user to extend the effective range of their shotgun.
