A friend is letting me use his MEC 600 in 410 to help out in my 410 slug load workups. I thought it would be fun to load some shot and buckshot and learn how to fold crimp. Not owning a 410 smoothbore was a problem that i quickly solved by hitting "buy it now".
A week later a well worn Mossberg 500E with 26" fixed full choke arrived. I cleaned and oiled it i then loaded 3" Fio hulls with an old win wad, 5/8 oz of 6-shot and 16g I4227. I then verified a good pattern to 35 yards.
I did a little walking on my friend's farm this afternoon and brought these two home. One shot at about 25 yards the other shot half that. Watched a young buck tearing up a bean field for 30 minutes too. It was a fine walk in the woods.
