Interested in getting a little 410 sxs. Anyone here tried the yildiz a4, and know where to find one?

Any other input regarding bang for your buck?

Looking for good value here I don’t have a pile of money for a higher end gun.
 
Hi guys, I have a nice upland guns in both 20 and 12 gauge.

I’m looking for a side by side .410

Anyone have any experience with the subject matter?

Thanks
 
I've handled and shot the Stoeger SxS 410 coach guns, very nice. I would not be afraid of them at all, but I would look for one with chokes if possible (not sure if they even make them). I've heard and read great things about Huglu, but have not used one. Most if not all CZ shotguns are re-badged Huglu's, which I take as positive.

I've seen too many grouse shot with a .410 get up and fly away.
it's a great kids or beginners gun, but that's it.

Actually it's a better gun for experts, people with the skills to hit game with it. My hunting partner uses a CZ 410 SxS when hunting over my dog, and he does quite well with it. I have used another friends CZ 410 SxS, and at close range it works well. The CZ SxS shotguns are made by Huglu, so you can find similar Huglu models.

Actually no, I've read articles written by experts who state the same as I did, and after 50 years of hunting myself, and given the price of ammo for the .410, I don't see the purpose of one except maybe as a beginners shotgun.

Here's one experts opinion...

I have a huglu 200ac mini sxs 410. Upgraded wood and grade 5 engraving. The only downside is its fixed full and full so shot larger than #7 starts to open the pattern. Its been a great gun and i do well on the skeet fields with it

I have a Huglu 202B, great little gun for the money. I had a Yildiz sxs 12 bore a number of years ago and I'd consider the Huglu to be a better gun albeit I've never looked at the Yildiz 410's.

The other guys are correct about price of ammo, killing power, etc.... but it seems to be human nature on the internet to answer questions that were never asked!
 
I use to hunt moose in northern Ontario. During the mid day around camp I used a Stevens S x S Model 311 in .410.
Great for all those grouse which were mostly sitting shots. The pattern is mostly small, but I did shoot some on the wing.
The Model 311 is a solid gun, good for many years of hunting, with no cronic problems.

I don't understand why full and full is a downside. Removable chokes are a resale feature for some but I would not hunt with a .410 other than full choked.
