Bought a Stevens 301 .410 because my shoulder has been bothering me for a while. Got to break it in Saturday. 23 lbs, 9 1/2" beard, 1" spurs. Federal TSS 9 shot. Don't think I need a 12 gauge now. LOL
Here is a 40 yard pattern. Haven't shot it any farther.That setup is a legit 100% kill every single time at 35 yards.
If you want to go out to 40y, I'd prob opt for some custom ammo in 9.5shot. I've seen insane patterns with Foxtrot ammo in a 410 at 40y.
About what I expected. Insane for a 410, but that pattern is only dense enough for a kill 80% of the time. I want a pattern dense enough I'm confident I'm going to get a kill 100% of the time at a certain range. Add another 75 pellets in that pattern (with 9.5s) and you will be there!
