Fireforming .303 cases fir a .410

[Patrick Chadwick]

Villiers,

when you've finished with all the interesting alternatives, why don't you just buy 410 shotshells?

Of course, the trick is to know that in Mauserland they are sold as "Kaliber 36 Schrothülsen".

Just go to the Johannsen site, download the online catalog, and you will find "Kaliber 36 Schrothülsen" somewhere about page 98 +/- a couple.

Yes, they are the same. Somewhere I once read an interesting article on how the whole caliber rating got screwed up when it came to the Cal.36/410. But it is sufficient to know that they are the same!

Lets see, a British Enfield shooting a .410 shotgun shell made in Germany,

We will have to let the neutral Swiss decide what the correct head space should be.

And the British and Americans members here can argue over who invented it.

Peter ... this is what I got from Johannsen (via: MidwayDEUTSCHLAND - Gualandi Light Game Shotshell Slug 410 Bore 93 Grain Lead/Wad Bag of 25). Expensive! Abd it took months to get. But it works and I now want to use brass cases and make my own slugs or ball.

BTW ... Sportarms sent me LE bolt heads nae bother ... WITHOUT asking for a WBK.
