Default RE: Going Boar hunting w/410 Help!

Having taken 7 boar myself, the .410 would not be my first choice of firearm for a boar hunt. But, it will do the job with the right load and the right shot placement. I would shot only slugs, as I am not sure if any major ammo maker offers a buckshot load for the 410. I beleive Winchester and remington offers a 2.5" 1/5oz slug loads. As far as I know, there is not a rifle round that will interchange with the .410 shotgun round. Oh yeah, and keep your shots close, maybe 50yds max.
