I understand it's a judge but it gives you an idea of the power of a 410 out of a short barrel. Hickok went to 00 buck before it would even penetrate a piece of thin air duct tubing at 7 yards. The spread on 00 buck at 7 yards is about a foot wide meaning any distance beyond that would result in praying that one hits the target.
Would it be good for varmints? Potentially but it's nothing I would want to bet my life on.
I would buy a small 38 special before I would buy this, unless the person shooting it is a horrible shot and needs that wide spread to hit anything  |
Wouldn't use buckshot for a self defense round .. but the self defense rounds he shot looked like they did very well and grouping was better then I though at 7 yards .. 4 rounds the equivalent of a 32 round hitting someone at the same time in a group the size of a softball .. I would think a couple of rounds of that on target would do the job ..
