Has anyone ever used these little shorties?

[Rudy H]

I looked at the length and saw a cool revolver (handgun) round.

Perfect load for sawed off shotties.

Neat, but I would be more interested in Buckshot or slugs.

I think it's Taurus that makes a revolver that uses .410 shells..called the judge or something like that...that looked pretty crazy, but these mini-shells in a revolver would be insane! And I'm sure every one of us would want one! lol

I imagine a revolver using the 12G shorties of yours looking somewhere between the Taurus Judge and the Milkor GL Strangeday used to have.

I wonder if Armedsask could put one together!

 

[Yuri Orlov]

There it is! Thanks, Strangeday.

They should work nicely in a Ithaca 37.

I've used the slug and buckshot/birdshot mix in a winchester 1300 with no problems. It's my understanding that winchesters work better and remingtons and mossbergs with these rounds.

Who carries that taurus?

Who carries that taurus?

I would think anyone that carries Taurus. I don't think there's a problem bringing them into Canada.

Skeet shooting anyone?

Interesting...I wonder if one could use them in a 3 gun match?

 

[guninhand]

They worked Ok in my 870 if you kept the barrel slightly below level when cycling. AFAIK, they are not allowed in sanctioned 3-gun matches because they do not meet the power factor, although they do knock over steel plates pretty good.

I disassembled one and the propellant was Red Dot. You can make your own with a roll crimper.

You can make your own with a roll crimper.

That's an interesting idea. I wonder how short you can go without any feeding problems.

 

[shotzee]

[RobSmith]

Only applies when hunting.
