Shotgunning IS great training but the .410 is not the way to learn. You will be struggling with the gauge and not learning much of anything. In order to learn you need to make hits.Does anyone do this?
I'm thinking of this more as a training practice for getting better at shooting at moving targets with other firearms, but it could be a fun challenge as well.
Thanks,

If you don't want to use 12, start with a 20. You don't give up much and using a 20 does force you to not be as sloppy.
If you use .410, you better use Full Choke and get up close. 3" shells are better too but there you go, the cost of .410 ammo will pay for a shotgun.
Because he worked his way up to it, he didn't start there, he ended there.I shot skeet a few weeks ago, with an older guy who used a .410 shotgun. I didn't see him miss much!
