Deer slugs are manufactured for the .410
Most shot guns can handle deer slugs.
yes
Yes- Buckshot, birdshot, or slugs.
Slugs and shot are simply the contents of the packaged shotshells. Any shotshell can be filled with shot of various sizes, including 00 buck or with slugs and any shotgun (single shot; pump, double or automatic) that will chamber that shell can shoot those loadings. One caution is that slugs and buckshot should not be used in shotguns fitted with full chokes. Modified chokes and improved cylinders are probably OK, and full chokes can be used with birdshot (smaller pellets).
$50-$100, depending on condition.
Of coarse that's what slugs do :)
Several of the early Stevens single shot rifles were available with smoothbore barrels chambered for .32, .38, and .44 shot cartridges. The 44 shot or 44 XL was a version of the 44-40 rifle cartridge loaded with birdshot. It is equivalent to a 2 inch 410 shotgun shell. WARNING A modern 410 shell may chamber in this gun (and if it will chamber, it will fire) but DON'T TRY IT if you want to keep all your body parts.
Stevens 30 caliber rim fire is not a true 30 caliber. Chamber is .296. Bore .270 t0 .277. I found a 30 caliber rim fire round, at a gun show. It did not measure out to a 30 cal. Shot shooter
yes and they sell rifled slugs that shoot better
Rifled slugs are actually INTENDED for smoothbore shotguns. Sabot slugs are intended for rifled shotguns. Performance will vary from gun to gun, but Modified choke seems to give the best accuracy with rifled slugs for many shotguns.
You should check with the barrels manufacturer about it's ratings, but I've never seen a slug barrel that wouldn't handle lead slugs.If you're talking about using shot shells...Since shot is contained in a wad, it never actually touches the walls of the barrel as it travels down it. The shot won't damage the riffling in the barrel, but since a slug barrel doesn't have the same choke as a shot barrel, and the wad in a shot shell isn't designed to spin, the shot pattern is going to be messed up.It's not a good idea.
Virtually all of the single shot Stevens 12ga shotguns are going to top out shy of $100. sales@countrygunsmith.net
