aga man Posted June 9, 2014 Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 Popped to some ripening barley last night in the never ending search for some pigeon shooting. I decided to take the 410 out with me as the field involves a bit of a walk. Although the pigeons are not hitting the field hard at the minute they are definately starting to show an interest. As i entered the field around 30 or so pigeons lifted from a sity tree in the middle of the field. I headed for the tree and sat and watched the field for a while. With in no time pigeons were returning and heading for the tree. I managed to shoot a few but unfortunately i only took 4 shell as i was only expecting the odd shot. There seemed to be a good few birds passing over the field and with decoys i am sure a bag of some sort could be made there. I will watch it closely for the rest of week and possibly have a session at the end of the week. I was quickly reminded what a joy the little 410 is to shoot and also what this little cartridge is capable of. The last shot resulted in a dead in the air pigeon at 42yds.

magman Posted June 9, 2014 Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 Well done The 410 is a great walkabout gun when looking for feeding birds and very under estimated IMHO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aga man Posted June 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 Well done The 410 is a great walkabout gun when looking for feeding birds and very under estimated IMHO Totally agree there magman. The lesser shot noise from them is a bonus too. I would use mine more often but the cheapest shells i can get are £6 a box against £4 12 bore.
