Had a chance today to get my new 410 Circuit Judge to the gun range today and check out it's rabbit gunning potential. Man was I pleasantly suprised. It shot great patterns out to 40 yards with 3 inch, 6 shot loads and should have no problem putting bunnies in the crock pot at that distance. I was also suprised with how well it handled the Colt 45's. Nice groups out to 100 yards. I was a little leary of such a untested gun but all of my concerns were put to rest today. Should be an awesome rabbit gun and really fun to shoot and carry....

It has an 18 1/2 inch barrel, short gun. Should be a real treat to shoot in heavy cover compared to my 870 12 guage I had been useing. The only thing that I was dissapointed to learn was that you cannot alternate shot shells and 45's in the cylinder, you need to change choke tubes. I thought it would have been great to have a couple 45's in the gun to deal with yote's.

Bodidley,

Where did you find and 8 1/2 barrel chambered for 3" shells? I can only find that for the 2 1/2 410 shells.
