henry c Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 Most gunshops do them, Saddley and gun rooms (search in google) can supply. Ive only ever managed to get 3 inch 6 shot ones though, made by Eley - 18 gram loads. Hope this helps! Henry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a box of them sitting next to me here. .410 Eley Subsonic 3inch 18g load #6`s... I havent seen any other subsonic .410 loads in the shops ive been in. As someone else said on here, they aint cheap tho. I paid £7.70 a box for mine. Best speak to Saddlery and see what they say.

drut Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 "Don't think there is a factory load in subsonic #4 shot size, I have only seen subs in #6 " I found the same,I also found Lyavale Express 2.5 just as quiet as the 3" subs through Hushpowered .410 & easier to obtain. Although I now reload I never found any advantage in bigger shot size than 6s & often prefer to load 7s as at the range I use the .410 at(25yds or so) energy isn't an issue but pattern is.

Ive heard several people say this. Have you heard what they sound like from a distance away? From what i understand they all sound the same when your next to the gun, but its only when your further away you notice the difference? If they are as quiet, i know i`ll be buying the 2.5 in future!

I have heard them from a few yards away when my mate has used the gun & no noisier to me. Noisiest so far has been Eley 3" fourlongs,sometimes difficult to tell as the noise varies: quietest firing skyward but louder if something like woods etc. to bounce the noise back.
