.410 Brace

Even though all the ammo shown is 2-1/2", both guns are chambered for 3" shells.

I am not saying anything in this picture is practical.

I am saying don't avoid things that delight you.

The KSG410 is kinda a pistol caliber carbine similar to .44 Magnum in performance... kinda, sorta.

The wee little slugs are 3d+1 pi+ out to 100/1,200.

.44 Magnum from this barrel length gets 4d+1 pi+ to 620/3,600.  From a revolver, .44 does 3d+1 pi+ to 210/3,200.  That's right, this shoulder fired gun is outranged by a handgun!

Light projectiles and moderate velocities do that.

    When I was a teenager, I wondered if a .41 Magnum could be shot in a .410. I am grateful I didn't try it - I would have lost my Savage 94Y single shot.

    I wonder how does a .410 slug compare to a .40 blackpowder load ? The latter was sometimes used to bring back venison to a family who needed meat. Internet - here I come.
