If you'd like to read a good current article on .410 Get a copy of Shooting Times September 2020 .410 FEVER by Payton Miller Good photos and folksy writing. For you Brits there is a great article by Joseph Von Benedict on the 600 Winchester Model 74 .22s sent to England in 1939 to help with the expected German invasion.
These rifles were fitted with scopes and suppressors ! They are worth big $$$$

I have a 1908 marbles game getter that is marked 410. I know these guns were for the 2" shell which is hard to find and expensive. The gun has no barrels and I am going to rebarrel it with a modern 410 barrel with 3" chambers. I would only use 2.5" factory shells in it if I knew it was safe. does anyone know if the 2" shell was the same pressure as the 2.5" shell? I read in an old ad for the game getter that it was made for smokeless powder.

Admin reply: I have had an interesting and useful series of emails with this guest and intend at some point to edit them into something useful. Meanwhile, I will try to give the best answer to the question:

The two inch .410 virtually disappeared from the US before World War Two and SAAMI, the Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers Institute, does not list specifications for it. Since the two inch .410 is not a SAAMI number, I checked the C.I.P, the European counterpart which does list the two inch .410 and the two and one-half inch .410. C.I.P. pressures are the same for both the two inch and the two and one half inch cartridges.
I hope this is of some use to you. Thanks for your query.

Marshall Williams

Been away since 2017 but still reloading and shooting a variety of .410 Two weeks ago I paid $500 for A very nice Remington 870 .410 with modified choke and vent rib. I have shot it through 50 reloads of # 8 and # 6 shot. A very enjoyable experience but I still prefer the Stevens side by side .410. Merry Christmas to my British friend Reginald Luff 1967 Scout World Jamboree and other European English speakers !!

Admin reply: And a happy new year to yourself and our other reader

Hi,
I am in search of a .410 Converted SMLE. A friend of mine told me they were reasonably common but so far I am struggling to find one. Are they really that common? and Where would be a good place to look? (I already keep a close eye on Gunstar, Guntrader etc.)

Want to Buy - Looking for a J Stevens model 54 or 37 410ga. Bolt Assembly or Bolt Body.

Admin reply: Try gunpartscorping, look under Savage parts. They do not list a whole bolt assembly, but show most parts. Contact them and ask whether they have a complete bolt assembly. If not, there appear to be enough parts to make one. Marshall

Are any new 410 bolt action shotguns available , is anyone making them

Admin reply: This query reminded me that my first shotgun was a Mossberg Model 183 bolt-action .410. It also reminded me that I had not given bolt action shotguns a thought in about 50 years, so I turned to old Gun Digests, my trusty source for all sorts of information. Looking back through the digital pages, the last .410 bolt action shotgun I could find, coincidentally the same Mossberg 183, was last listed in the 1986 Gun Digest. As Gun Digest appears late in the year receding the date on the cover, the gun was listed in 1985. I think they all are gone. Marshall Williams
