stroller 341 Posted October 25, 2011 Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 I have a little baikal moderated 410 for shooting ferreted rabbits, Accuracy i have quickly found out is a lot more important than when using a 12g. The question is, is there a cartridge that i could use that would have a bit more stopping power. I suppose its all down to pellet content and spread but i would appreciate anyones experience and advice. Regards Keith Quote Link to post
JonathanKent 16 Posted October 25, 2011 Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 What are you currently using? is your 410 chambered for 3 inch cartridges? ATB Jonno Quote Link to post

gnipper 6,467 Posted October 25, 2011 Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 When I had my hushpower the best cartridges I used in it were Fiocchi 3" 7.5 shot which I shot allsorts with and some old paper ones that someone gave me. The standard 410 catridges that shops sell like express and gamebore rattle like marraca's and are all different weights. Quote Link to post

willum 89 Posted October 25, 2011 Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 3" 6 shot lyvales through my hush power baikal no probs just a wide shot pattern due to the mod on the gun being very open enough to fit brass end of cartridge in Quote Link to post
stormrider8 59 Posted October 25, 2011 Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 I use 3inch magnums in a hush power. Bowls them over mate! Quote Link to post
stroller 341 Posted October 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2011 Thanks lads, i will have a trial and error session with some different types. but the main problem is with the bloke behind the gun!! Quote Link to post
ksfowler166 0 Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 For the absolute best patterns with any shotgun try tungston shot.The price is consibley more but the 410 needs some help to get good patterns.For lead or steel shot use a 2 1/2" shel they pattern better than a 3" shell.
