Love the .410, have two of them but they are a gun for an experienced shooter. THe .410 shoots morer like a rifle than a shotgun, pretty small shot load so precision is paramount.

I did grow up in the era of the .410 as a "Starter gun" because of recoil. You might be better off considering a 28 g. as a starter gun.
