DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DO THIS! It is unsafe and could result in damage to the firearm and/or injury or death to the shooter and/or bystanders. Always stick to the cartridge for which the gun was designed.

What shell will fit a 410 shotgun other then a 410 shell?
None. Some handguns have been made that will fire .45 Long Colt revolver rounds and .410 shotgun shells, but that does not mean that you can take any .410 shotgun and stick .45 handgun ammo in there.
Can a 410 shotgun use a fouty-five caliber bullet safely?
No, is the short answer. The long answer is a little more complex. The .45 Colt and the .410 share similar base dimensions which make them interchangeable in certain firearms. Usually, however, you find .45 Colt/.410 shotgun combinations, meaning the firearm is designed to shoot .45 Colt, but will also accept .410 shot shells. The Taurus Judge, and Bond Derringer's Snake Slayer are two pistol examples. There are many variations, but the unifying factor is that these guns are designed to handle higher chamber and barrel pressures generated by the .45 Colt cartridge. The barrel of your typical .410 shotgun is very thin in comparison, and is designed to fire shotgun ammunition only. So, if the firearm is specifically designed for it, you can shoot .410 shotgun ammunition through a .45 Colt barrel. You cannot, nor should you attempt, to load a .45 Colt round into a .410 shotgun.
What models of 410 shotguns can fire a 45 long colt?
None, other than a very few that are marked "45 Colt/ .410", such as a Thompson Contender, or Taurus Judge. Shooting .45 Colt or any other handgun cartridge in a .410 shotgun can be extremely dangerous. Can it be done? Yes. How many times can it be done before the shotgun fails, and injures you? Ah- THAT is the question- and no one has an answer for that.

What caliber pistol can you load and shoot in a 410?
None. While there are firearms made to shoot .45 Colt AND .410 shotshells, they are designed and made to do that. A regular .410 shotgun is NOT made to do that safely.
Can you safely shoot a 45LC in a smooth bore 410 shotgun with a full choke?
Absolutely not. A .45 Long Colt bullet is nominally .455 inches in diameter. A .410 is .41 caliber. The cartridge will fit because of the extra chamber diameter to accommodate the thick body of the shotgun shell, but attempting to fire a revolver cartridge will result in overpressure, a burst barrel, and likely injury.The chamber pressure of a .45 LC is higher than a shotgun is designed to tolerate, to begin with.
Can 45 caliber be shot in 410 gauge shotgun?
