Paddy Galore! Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 Why's this this goes against the grain? I have no idea. semms daft, less powder, less shot, less packaging, more money. I don't believe for a second that they cost more to make, but the manufacturers charge more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fortune82 Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 Its down to the economies of scale. There will be hundreds of millions of 12 bore loaded anually but very few .410 in comparison. Also apparently the smaller cartridges are fiddly to load. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
