Right, but ........ I can pick up all the .410 shells I can stand to reload for free. And a very gracious donor once sent me several hundred once fired 3" cases. 🙂

Seriously, I've never had to buy any .410 hulls except for 100 Cheddites to use to work up a 3/4 oz. "super load".

Even if you did end up at $5 a box, that's a long way from $12 - $15.

What is so hard for me to understand, and this is NOT directed at any one person, is why it's okay, and even recommended by many on this forum, that we should pay high prices for low pressure, over the counter, 2 1/2" shells to use in a vintage damascus gun, but cry "Wolf!" about someone paying a couple dollars a box more for .410s, if that's what brings them enjoyment.

May God bless America and those who defend her.
