Wingman Posted November 11, 2019 Report Share Posted November 11, 2019 .410 is hard enough full stop regardless of the gun. I have used my Yildiz a few times and my hit rate is much less than the 12 bore. Practice is the way to go and try heavier shells the Eley fourlongs seem to do well for me.

Stonepark Posted November 11, 2019 Report Share Posted November 11, 2019 (edited) Hushpower usually shoots a bit low due to height of bead above muzzle, once this is gotten round hit rate will come back up. Either cheek pad to raise stock or learn to mount seeng a certain about of rib. When I put a laser cartridge (about £6 off evilbay) down my barrel barrel aim point was 2ft lower than bead at 30 yards.

kenholland Posted November 11, 2019 Report Share Posted November 11, 2019 as above , just taped a bit of foam type on both my 4/10 and 20 that sorted out the low shooting problem . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultrastu Posted November 11, 2019 Report Share Posted November 11, 2019 Try to shoot them at 20 - 25 yds .30 yds seems to be about maximum range . I use minimum 16 grm no 6 .gamebore .or often 19 grm no6 nsi . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
