RE: .410 for deer
Dont think foster -type slugs are the newist or best designed around , but marginal i dont know , up close / heavy woods a reasonable distance & the big hole it puts into& threw deers chest didnt seem to marginal then , when .. that was the only gun of choice ( a shotgun) by law( to many d laws& lawmakers)
Starts out as a 76 cal a 12 gauge dosnt it? before any flating of bullets etc.
but im versatil /long as i can get out hunt things etc , butt to old, broken down for rock bolos& spears.
