This Web Site is an attempt to link together a series of Web sites (plus other useful information) specifically for the Fourten shotgun (.410) user, collector and reloader.
Shooting this diminutive shotgun is a minority sport in the UK and information about, and for, the Fourten shotgun hard to come by.
How about a copy of the most useful book on 410 reloading
you can buy for Christmas !! .....Details ... Ordering
Dear Fourten Website
Please can you advise me where I can get some .410 steel shot cartridges for my .410 Webley Sportsman (Full choke). My barrel is in perfect condition, I shoot mainly in woodland so need to avoid ricochets. .....
With Lead shot coming under more pressure.
Some things to consider ....
Having usually attended the CLA Game fair for 2 days (Fri & Sat) I tried to book my usual 2 nights camping
(Thursday to Saturday) ... £160 ! (excluding entry)
This is the result of a new policy of charging from the arrival date,
rather than no. of days required as per previous years.
(No, I don't want 4 days, now the ONLY option from thursday)
2 day entry is £45 so ..
2 day camping (from thursday) and entry = £205 ! I'm afraid the CLA have lost contact with real people in the real world
No CLA Game Fair for us this year (actually .. No CLA Game Fair for anyone in 2012 as it's been cancelled!)
... or next ..or next ... unless sense prevails in the CLA pricing dept.
Many thanks also to Tim Woodhouse for his excellent very knowledgable articles.
We also wish to give our thanks to Robert Sears for being allowed to publish his article "Should
a .410 be in your battery" (previously
published in the "American Rifleman").
Every possible aspect of shooting the
.410 is extensively covered. Game, Sporting Clays, Skeet, Mini
FITASC, Cartridges, Reloading, Shot sizes & hardness, Chokes,
Wads, History, Extensive Shot performance, Velocity,
Energy & Penetration charts, Gun tests: Over & unders, side by
sides, autos, pumps, shot pistols, Comparison with the
28bore.The 'lost gauges' of 32
& 24 bore and much more. Further details here

Load a handfull of slugs into your Safir T14 ;-) and have a plink at this lot ...
If you have a computer and a decent printer, load it up
with reasonably thick A4 paper/card (we use 160 g per
sq metre) and print out the particular targets you require.
