Gun show this morning a guy has one of the old Stevens 9478 10 gauge single shots asking $200, good shape. I've considered getting a 10 for coyote hunting and who knows, I might give turkeys a try or water fowl someday. I tend to like single barrel break opens as shotgun types go, I would definitely want to figure out how to add some weight to it, though.
I have a Lyman shotgun loading manual. How much loading infrastructure is out there for the 10? I got into 20 and 12 pretty cheap with the Lee Load Alls, but they don't make them in 10. Is there a Lee Loader hand tools somewhere for the 10 gauge?
I would be most interested in lead #4 buckshot loadings in it or similar. Seems most of the 10 gauge shells you see are steel, which is understandable as it's mainly a water fowl gun.
Thoughts?
