Yes a 410 gauge with slug will kill a whitetail deer. In fact if you are under 50 yards or less, this gun is very effective. One problem seen by Division of Wildlife officials is that many hunters, out of the gun season will shoot a deer with this type shotgun, then stick a arrow into the carcass to try to fool everyone. But a trained eye can usually detect this.
Yes, a 410 gauge rifled slug will easily kill a deer. Make sure your marksmanship is great and stay away from the shoulders, or other bones. They loose their energy quick so get to practicing and have fun.
For a .410, .32 gauge or 9mm shotguns,the maximum killing range is around 25 yards or less
Depends on what gauge, what load and barrel length
40 m or 131.2 feet for a 12-gauge M500 shotgun
40 m or 131.2 feet for a 12-gauge M500 shotgun
It made accurate long range fire possible.
That will depend on the size of the shot, and not the gauge. Fired across level ground with the largest buckshot, a shotgun has a maximum range of between 600 and 700 yards. Not a usable range- just the furthest that shot will travel.
The 69 smoothbore had a maximum effective range of about 100 yards (more or less). The rifled 58 Springfield musket had an effective range of 300 yards against men or 600 yards against larger targets like a man on a horse.
Maximum effective range at a point target: 550 metres Maximum effective range at an area target: 800 metres Maximum range: 3600 metres
For a rifled slug, you're only looking at a practical range of 100 metres/yards or so.

Taking into consideration only the field artillery, the longest cannon range of the Napoleonic era was of 1,800 meters, reached by a 12 pound smoothbore gun (caliber 121 millimeters) firing with its maximum elevation. When the Civil War broke out, the Union had at disposal the 3 inches gun and the Parrot's 10 pound gun, both rifled, whose ranges went beyond 4 kilometers. But the maximum range was that of over 10 kilometers, reached by Parrot's rifled siege cannons of 100, 200 and 300 pounds.
The maximum range of infrared rays is 1000m.
