Super Lethal .410 loads

[Wolfwood]

These would be awesome.

How much powder would we need to cram into a .410 shell to get it to perform like a .450?

would need a custom gun for this. or atleast a custom upper receiver. sort of a poor man's .50 beowulf.

A .410 slug has some pretty good power, for a .410.

 

[Wolfwood]

hmmm

true.

.410 slug is like a 10mm roughly, just in a bigger package and with the aerodynamics of a sailboat.

sail boats can go pretty fast...

but not 1870 fps.

Probably just enough to get your shotgun to perform like a pipebomb !

He has high hopes...big dreams...and wants to make the impossible possible.

The shotshell itself is the first obstacle holding you back. They're not made to handle pressure like that. The next is going to be the guns themselves. Again, not made to handle that kind of pressure. Compared to even an AR-15, the bolt locking system on my 12 gauge 870 magnum is weaksauce. Any actual high pressure loads are going to turn any shotgun in existence into super-lethal shrapnel.

yeah understood, the idea was to have a unique shotgun built for super high pressure.

dont they make .410 brass? maybe that would fare better?

Go ahead an' encourage him.....and up his life insurance!

Wolfy......if the breech/bolt ain't gonna handle it, the casin' ain't gonna do much more, other that add shrapnel....

I have maxed it out for now...maybe I'll take out a supplemental plan. There isn't a limit on how many policies you can have on someone, right?

Absolutely not! Besides - you always have the "Spousal Policy", which allows you to use his gonads to pay any necessary additional fees. He won't mind!

Ahhh...great point. I'll have to make my decisions wisely though...I would like to have at least one child sometime in the future....

I'm guessing you haven't seen his baby pictures? Cutest baby ever, and that isn't something I judge lightly.
