| 614.1 | 45/410 | BTOVT::SILK | I'M THE N.R.A | Thu Feb 22 1990 06:29 | 20 |
Purchased a 45/410 in the 16" barrel just before the holidays for
Rabbit hunting.
Haven't fired any 45's through it yet,but the 410 works real good
on small game.
I shot a partridge in my back yard last fall @ 32 paces.I was putting
cedar siding on my house when we heard one drumming in the woods out
back.My father inlaw spotted him on a log,I ran out front of the house
to my truck,and grabbed my pistol.I had to belly crawl across my back
lawn to get as close as I could.My father inlaw got a big kick out of this!!
I would say 20 yards is a good range!!

P.S- The 16" fits in a 14" uncle mikes holster,But not real well!!!

Same one Nate has..
The person we are talking about is Nate Mitchell. Well known Maine
Guide, Outdoorsman and host of "Outdoors in Maine," a TV show that is
shown in Maine, VT and Alabama..
Nate goes prepared to hunt. He usually carries a rifle, 30-06 or 30-30,
a T/C with .410 bird shot, a 357 with 158gr's, a .22, three knifes,
cheese, crackersm candy bars and 2 Bud's...Nate could hold off a small
army for a week with all the weapons he carries each day.
