Title: 410 turkey gun loads
Post by: schuylkillspur on March 30, 2012, 07:19:48 PM
Bought a 870 Rem in .410 with the intent of finishing my gauge slam. I patterned a few loads of 7.5 from different companys and they were OK to 25 yds. So I cheated a little and broke open a few Hevi-13 7's and place the shot in some Rem express shell which patterned the best with lead. I think I'm good to 30yds now and maybe a little farther. There are 121 hits in this piece of 8.5 X 11 target.
