Winchester Super-X .410 Buckshot

Super-X .410 Buckshot

Winchester Super-X .410 Buckshot puts three heavy 000 buck pellets into a 2-1/2 inch .410 shell. The .410 is the smallest common shotgun bore, so a buckshot load gives it far more weight per hit than birdshot. The box art shows fox and coyote, and the load is also carried for close-range personal defense. Each box holds 5 shells.

Features

• .410 Bore — Sized for shotguns and other firearms chambered in .410, the lightest-recoiling of the common shotgun bores.
• 2-1/2 Inch Shell — The standard .410 length, which also fits chambers rated for longer 3 inch shells.
• 000 Buck Pellets — Triple-aught buck is the largest standard buckshot size, with each pellet roughly .36 inch in diameter.
• Three Pellets Per Shell — The cutaway shows the pellets stacked in a single column, which is how a load this size fits inside a .410 hull.
• 1,300 FPS Muzzle Velocity — Winchester rates the load at 1,300 feet per second as it leaves the barrel.
• Wad And Powder Column — A wad sits between the powder charge and the shot, sealing the gas behind the pellets as they travel down the bore.
• Brass-Colored Base, Red Hull — The plastic hull and metal head follow conventional shotshell construction.
• Box Of 5 — A small count that suits patterning your gun, filling a magazine tube or keeping a few ready rounds on hand.
• Made In USA — Produced by Winchester, whose Super-X line dates to 1922.

Load And Chamber Fit

Use these shells only in a firearm in good condition that is marked and chambered for 2-1/2 inch .410 or longer. Winchester warns against firing them in Damascus or other twist-steel barrels, the older forge-welded barrels found on some antique guns. Pattern the load at the distances you expect to shoot, since three pellets give a sparse pattern and the shot has to be placed well.
