DanPadgett Posted February 26, 2019 Report Share Posted February 26, 2019 Hi all, I’m trying to identify a .410 cartridge. I got a handful of them thrown in with my hushpower but struggling to find them after googling etc they say topmark, they’re a no6 but can’t make anything else out Hoping somebody can help identify so I can get some more as shooting much better than my gamebore 11gm thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aga man Posted February 26, 2019 Report Share Posted February 26, 2019 I have a feeling they was a Kent cartridge, although fiocchi did load 410 in green cases at one time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokersmith Posted February 26, 2019 Report Share Posted February 26, 2019 I have a memory of a box with a clay shooter on it ... glasses ... very 70’s!! I doubt you will buy any off the shelf nowadays! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes that's right I got some free when I brought a Lincon Universal 12 bore supplied by Nickerson and they were very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
