.410 rifled choke

[Matt3357]

I am looking for something that may not exist. I am looking for a rifled choke for a 410. I don't care what its for, just that its for a 410. I think I have read somewhere that in Russia you can buy one for a saiga 410 but I have had zero luck finding one as of now. Could you please tell me if they do not exist or point me in the right direction to find one.

thanks,
Matt

I have never heard of one.

Rifled choke tubes are used with Sabot type deer slugs.
Since no one makes sabot slugs in .410, I doubt anyone makes rifled choke tubes for them either.

Pray tell, why do you want one?

Are you planning to load up with .41 magnums?

That was one avenue of the plan to load up 41 mag SWC in a 3 in .410 shell as a 200 grain slug. Another was to fire form a brass casing to fit the chamber and seat the bullet closer to the bore and use a filler of some sort in the empty space in the case. Basically a poor mans 45-70 that can shoot buck shot, birdshot, and slugs.

Just off the top of my head, I would say you would have to about double the chamber pressure the .410 action is rated for to get even close to shotgun slug velocity with a 200 grain solid bullet.

And if you notice, for whatever reason, even many years ago, the dual use .410 guns all use .410 shotshells and .45 Colt cartridges, not .41 caliber cartridges.

Likely over-bored for the .45 bullet & rifling, but you might slug your bore and see what it really is.

Well if you load it like you load other shot shells, weight is weight. There are 3 inch loads up to 3/4 ounce payload and a 200 gr bullet is only 0.457 ounces. No where near doubling the pressure but effectively doubling the weight of any factory slug and hopefully increasing accuracy at the same time.
