My First Partridge Day With the 410 (Dave Carrie Shooting)

I recently challenged the idea of people turning up to high bird shoots with a 410, this caused a hot debate between the for and against brigade. To be fair I decided to do further tests and results on the pattern plate at moderate range showed me that on 20-35 yard birds, in the correct hands of course, the little 410 would be okay. Through this online debate I was challenged by some 410 enthusiasts to shoot and film a day on appropriate game for that calibre.
It was only a small day but every gun had plenty of shooting and I think because of its affordability these small bore days are a great way to introduce youngsters and ordinary working countryfolk into the driven traditional shooting world, without breaking the bank.

This has to be one of my favorite Dave Carrie videos for several reasons in no particular order. 1. A minor bit of cursing. 2. The discussion about getting the kids outdoors. 3.

I agree, I've been shooting one for 30 years now. Wonderful gun and very versatile especially with screw in chokes. One of the side benefits is being able to carry a pocket load of mixed shells or a small belt that weighs almost nothing.

Thank you so much for providing me a look into a hunt I can only find in my dreams.

To know that food is not a cellophane wrapped thing in a grocery store, but a living fellow creature, deserving of respect and appreciation for their sacrifice that provides life for me. The hunter knows this truth.

Excellent shooting, good to see the mix of ages involved in the shoot.

[@stevencroon]

My grandfather gave me a Winchester model 42 when I was 10 years old and that is the gun I learned how to hunt birds with. I mostly hunted Blue grouse in the high mountains of Montana, but also shot many ducks with that little gun. I still have the gun and shoot it every fall hunting grouse in the mountains. Three bird limits are the norm. Although I shoot a 3-1/2 " 12 bore now foe ducks and geese the 410 bore will always be my favorite after nearly 60 yeas with it.

[@DaveCarrieShooting]

great tale of the little gun and its place in the countryside, thankyou

You know what Dave, a lot of sense spoken there in the last 10 minutes of that video. 100% spot on, education is key; people are condemning what we do, without any understanding of it. And you're right, BASC should step outside of their comfort zone. I go out of my way to invite people to join me, or to introduce them to rabbit pie or Venison. How people can sit and eat cage reared birds yet criticise the taking of wild game is beyond me. Best of health to you.

[@edwardnersesian1324]

Dave, thanks for another great video and you pulled off some excellent shots on a sunny day! I too enjoy taking the .410 Superposed or Model 42 pump out a few times a year and after the first couple of shots if I just treat it like the big gun and keep it moving through the shot reasonable range birds will fall and clays will break. Just as importantly in these videos, you are an eloquent spokesman for our shooting and gun rights which are being threatened non-stop both here in the USA as well as in Great Britain. Best wishes for the Christmas Season!

Dave is absolutely right about the kids and country sports education. I was brought up in a city, had a government education, and was only one of a few hundred in our school to enjoy shooting. As long as i could remember my dad and older brother hads gun dogs and guns so i was brought up knowing only gun safety and country sports, the children of today must be educated on the country way of life. No McDonald's in the feilds. No burger king in the woods. Education is key to keeping this sport alive. Great video.

[@leogrizzaffi5267]

For the first 30 years of my life I shot shot Skeet, Trap and field with a 12 gauge, pumps, auto, and over unders. The next 30 years I put the 12 on hold and used various 20 gauge guns for all my shooting. Then for 15 years the 28 over/under was my constant companion for all shooting. The last ten years has been devoted to only shooting the 410 for all compition and field use. The 410 is the most expensive to shoot if you only use commercial ammuntion. I reload all my shotgun ammo and and now the 410 is the least expensive, with you enjoy the challenge of reloading. The new TSS shot opens and new world for the 410. I only regret that this is so late in my life.

Watching this video is making me more convinced in my mind of a 410/28 o/u could be a good addition to cupboard..(might tell the wife it’s for the kids but dad needs to use it for a year or so 1st )

[@johnhutchinson5398]

That’s the best small bore 410 shoot I’ve seen in some time. I’m from the south in the USA and we have plenty of quail in and around the south eastern states. My first shotgun was a 410 by Ivey Johnson that my dad got me when I was seven. I learned how to shoot from my dad and grandfather who was LC Smith side by side shotguns. I killed my first eastern turkey with my 410 and plenty of rabbits and grey squirrels. I never got a chance to use any of my old shotguns that was handed down to me because they all got destroyed in a firearm my x father-in-law’s. I got to shoot my daddy’s side by side a few times but never got to do any quail hunting with that field grade 12 gauge LC Smith. But watching you really reminded me of the days with my 410. I wish I had my old guns still. Great shooting you did with that 410. I bet you give them birds heck with a 12 gauge out to 70 yards. Thanks for the great video and the memories you brought back to this old mind and body.

Love .410s. Got into them after a bad nerve issue with my shoulder now resolved. No kick and 100 x .410s in your pocket weighs an awful lot less than 100 x 12g. You have to be quite precise though, many younger or first timers on a moving target can get very disillusioned, try clays first. Have an old Mossberg 500 and a Win 9410 which is just fantastic and dead tight pattern. Just my opinion only, just mine, some birds you get .. have seen far too much gun, either taken at longer distances and full of shot or shorter and blown to pieces. 30 odd yards 410 and a bit of experience does the job clean. Great to see you out there with the loyal .410.

Fiocchi 7.5 English 7s are the best all round 410 cartridge I have found for the price. I’ve tried all others including the new gamebore which aren’t bad but don’t pattern as well as fiocchi. Also game bore need to bring it out in a 7 to give a fuller pattern, fiocchi have an extra 60 pellets in their 19 gm load which gives a better pattern, after all we are only shooting 35 yards max so a 6 is overkill at that range. I no you’re sponsored by gamebore which ties your hands a bit but give some a go, you only have to watch what most 410 shooters on KZbin use to see which is best. Keep up the good work, and stay safe in this strange time.

Great video. This may be a rude question to ask, but could someone give a ballpark figure as to what these affordable days cost per gun? My daughter and I are new to shooting and the cost of a 150-200 bird driven pheasant shoot is a little out of our range currently. This sounds like it's absolutely ideal for people like us who at this stage aren't able to spend £1000+ per gun. Even more so as we're in neighbouring Yorkshire so this is close by.

My wife and I enjoy your presentations. In a small way, we live vicariously through your shooting experiences. Dave, we believe that you are right on target(no pun intended) when you advocate for education in the schools especially in the "mainstream" schools. Are there opportunities for shooting clubs or naturalist clubs for students during after school hours or on weekends? (We are Yanks so we are somewhat unfamiliar with the educational system in Great Britain.)Possibly, a consortium of affluent guns could fund a club or clubs for students, boys and girls. Do not neglect the girls. They become adult women and mothers who not only yield influence in the homes and the community but very importantly in the voting booths. Lastly, ( as I am running off), How about vocational programs sponsored by game preserves as an elective academic and/or recreational sports program for students? Just a few thoughts! Keep sharing your voice and your presence to the sport and the countryside. Best regards, Frank Vacirca

Typical Yorkshire-man 3 days for nowt, cheeky bugger. Great video though, love the little .410, but like you say know the guns limits and most of all know your own. Just one more comment, the game fares are too expensive for many to attend, your Whippet and Lurcher men with their families can't afford those prices. The thing is all outdoor sport enthusiasts need to unite and work together forming a more united front. your comment of the old gamekeepers is a good one though and many an old poacher could tell a story or too as well, I know those were the kind of books I loved to read as a kid.
