.410 gauge Shotgun Reloading Tips?

[varmit_hunter]

I load alot of 410 ammo. I use a Mec 600 jr mark 5 410 3 inch. I have a Lyman's shotgun data book. And the BPI small gague load data books. Plus u can goto Hodgdon website. And find free load data. I load 3 inch mostly in 5 & 6 shot. I use win 296 and Alliant 410 powder. I squirrel all the time. Went into Walmart this week. Seen Remington long range express 410 ga 3 inch ammo. First 3 inch I have seen in a while. 23.00 plus tax a box. Only had 2 boxes. I can reload the hulls.

I don't think the 410's are any more difficult to load than the
larger gages-----you just have to be more careful and patient
handling the smaller components.

Win AA hulls, Win primers,Win 296 powder---or H110, and Win
shot cup.

Unless the MEC 600 loader has changed, it will have an adjustable
crimping cam to make the crimp tighter and more tapered-----a very
good design feature.

Enjoy.

If that doesn't work for you try the Lee factory crimp die for 45 LC. I haven't yet but the factory crimp die for 44 magnum worked for me but I think the 45 LC would not stress the hull as much.
