Hi all, me again. I am rather confused, I am looking on http://www.hodgdonreloading.com/data/shotgun and trying to work out whats what. step 1: 410 step 2: 3" [does it matter what 3" cart i use? I was just going to use some spent eley 410 extralong that i have.] step 3: lead [6,7,8 but not all at the same time] step 4: 11/16oz [19.5 grams] step 5: Hodgdon step 6: H110 Primer: Fed.209A or Win. 209 [can i use a different one eg: cheddite CX50?] Wad: Fed.410SC or WAA41 [if i cant get ether of them is there a way to know what else i can use?] Grs: 14.9 or 15 I fully understand how dangerous reloading can be even more so when you don't listen/read the info, hence why I am asking the above three questions and also the ones below. Wad length i want to use a fibre wad, does the length of the wad affect anything? eg: if i use a shorter fibre wad [5 mm to shorter] can i just cut the cart down by 5 mm instead of using overshot cards? Do all 410 carts use the same size primer? how do I know what will and wont fit? Any sites/forums that have good and reliable info for reloading that is relevant for us in the uk? Sorry if any of my questions are daft but i have never looked at this side of shooting before a couple of weeks ago. Thanks in advance

Thanks will check the links out. Ye I found Folkestone and it looks to be a good site, also henrykrank seems ok. Thanks for the info.

Hi all, just wondering where those who reload 410 cartridges got there reloading press/tools from? I cant see any where to get them with out ether modifying or spending extra to get a conversion kit for a press for a different calibre. Only thing I can find that comes as a 410 kit is the survival loader from America for £70 on ebay 😞 Powder, primers, wadding and shot I can get some what local.

Nice tip thank you. This is why I like good forums, people are always willing to give pointers and help those with less knowledge
-
Thanks, I take it we cant shoot that? ;D
-
Nice, thank you for that photo aga I will have to have a drive around and see what I can find, if not I will just have to drop some letters into farms around here and hope for the best.
-
Thanks for the info, was hoping to be able to spot some damage to see what it looks like so I could try to target farms better. Guess I will have to come up with a different plan.
-
Thanks, is there something I should be looking out for? The link just takes me to the default bbc page sorry.
-
ohh ok sorry about that, I understand and ye that's totally fair on your part.
-
Thanks, are the other 2 not showing up? should be lower down the page. I will repost them if not.

Hi all, I have never really targeted birds/rabbits that cause crop damage before but I am looking into it a bit more, I have done most of my shooting on hill farms, woods and rough ground. Never had much to do with crops and when I have done I cant say that I ever took note of what the damage actually looked like as I was with someone else who knew what they were doing in that respect. I was just wondering what crop damage looks like from an aerial view? as I was taking a look at farms near me. [ I know that photos like this are out of date by a few years, but I was just wondering what to look out for. I am more interested in rabbits than birds but info on both is welcome.] https://imgur.com/a/CWCX9mS I have 3 photos, please could someone try to explain what might have caused the lack of crops/ patchiness? 1 is a planting problem maybe??, 2 I am not sure about, and 3 looks like bad ground [this is me guessing] Thanks
