RE: .410 on deer?
 

I have no clue, but I do know that I killed my first deer when I was a kid with a 20 gauge double barrel savage at 50 yards.

When originally posting the question.....Uncle Matt asked WHO HAD, and WHAT RESULTS...lots of opinions, but i think he was looking more for facts.

FOR THE RECORD........ I never have, never will (because its illegal), don't know anyone that has, and therefore, have no opinion.

My curiousity was just because I have some boxes of .410 slugs in my locker. It isn't a legal slug here in IL, I was just wondering how well they worked. Appreciate the comments.

It would translate into a 67 and 1/2 guage.

Sure a 410 will kill a deer,but why use a 410 when there are calibers more suited for the job.

RE: .410 on deer?
 

Well Mat, there are some hunters that like the archers
way but with a .410 shotgun @30-40yds. Hunters
don't give archers much credit, but it gives you a thrill
when you can take a deer at those close ranges.
Hunter againist the deer. If anyone thinks it is easy,
try it some time. Are you good enough? Test yourselves!

410 will do the job just fine, its all about accuracy. If the slug is 1/2 ounce,and I think it is that makes 32 to the pound or 32 gauge.I think.
