wow that works?? does it hurt the rifling at all to fire .410 shells through it?
pretty neat if it is harmless to the rifle
a more seasoned gun nut may correct me on this but i believe the only down fall is more frequent cleaning due to lead fouling.
I deheaded one with a rock yesterday, guns are to easy!
hIT ONE TODAY WITH A ROCK, NO LUCK JUST PUSHED HIM OVER, THEN HIT HIM WITH A STICK, NO LUCK HE FLEW
Woa you can do that? Would it have to be lead?
yea whats going on here, wheres bartel to tell us if this is a good idea or not.
I have heard of shooting .410 shells with a 45-70 but always wondered about how well it works. I can’t imagine the rifled barrel creating a great shot pattern. Do the .410 shells eject OK?
"wheres bartel"
