There’s some 410 loads with charges under 1/2 ounce in the BPI small bore manual. Most are above average velocity.

I’m not optimistic the sub 1000 FPS loads will be significantly...

Chilled shot is pretty soft. It is likely more valuable as shot if you could trade it.

Thanks! That’s most helpful. I can work down from there when I get home.
My pump wouldn’t close on the 303 brass I have no use for. It might be time to dedicate some of the 444 brass for this task!...

I just emailed BPI a request for help to their load of the week email address. Hopefully they will accept the challenge.

That is pretty inspirational!

Do you have the courage to try it with a faster powder? I know you are a fan of TiteWad!
2 grains?

For this application I would definitely put priority on low noise over power. Or a velocity requirement.

I am wanting something to dispatch critters when penetration of a fraction of an inch is...

My initial concern is the airspace in 45 Colt recipes and no airspace in shot loads.

Knowing enough to be dangerous, I would assume the cushion section of shotgun wads mimics some airspace of...

I subscribed to this thread. This specification would be great for rats and snakes and such. I’m sure it could be done with black powder, but I’d much prefer smokeless loads.

BPI takes requests...

Another one bites the dust!

Momma always said “where there’s one, there’s more.”

How was the muzzle blast with your 444 short load?

I’m sure the derringer is loud!

I’d love to have some 410 recipes with TiteWad or something fast. It would cut back the muzzle pressure and blast. Even if it was as light as 3/8 ounce or even...

I wouldn’t want barn tin on the house even if it was new. Standing seam metal roofing would be better.

I appreciate the opening paragraph of this thread. Thanks for nipping that in the bud!

Are your #9 loads 2-1/2 or are you using the full 3” ones?

The soil was dry and rock hard in Tennessee...

Japanese yew caused the death of several of our cattle when I was in elementary school. Looks like it affects goats too.

May I ask what part of your new house is this sheet metal going to be used for?

I’m betting my money here as well.

I’ve learned there’s two kinds of dead deer. In the freezer dead, and lost in the briars buzzard feed...

Found it.

I remember radio station’s request lines back before you could pull up music on you tube.

You mentioned keeping costs down and shooting as much as possible.
The Lyman Gould’s mold is a single cavity hollow point mold. It’s a classic! 1800’s design.
But using a single cavity mold is...

Getting back to the topic of the thread of a farm/house gun, it’s not a bad choice to pick a shotgun. New shooters and those less practiced might be able to hit the target easier with a shotgun than...

There’s a 12 gauge slug mold at a shop in St Charles MO missing the pin. Too bad it isn’t correct for it...

A round nose wouldn’t be my first choice to cast for hunting.

I like the NOE RG molds. It’s a “hollow point” mold that comes with three different pins. A flat point, cup point and a deep hollow...

I was invited to dove hunt with a neighbor on the sheriff’s department. There was an impressive meal cooked on the Blackstone grill. His son in law said the blessing before we ate.
After the meal,...
