If you keep a Taurus Judge, a S&W Governor or a 410 shotgun by the bed, you want a defensive load built for that gun rather than a birdshot shell pressed into service. Federal Premium Personal Defense 410 Bore 3 inch #4 Buck, MPN PD413JGE4B, is made for exactly that job. This listing is a bulk case of 200 rounds, enough to pattern your gun, practice with the load you actually carry, and still keep a healthy supply on hand for home defense.
Each 3 inch shell holds 9 pellets of copper-plated #4 buckshot. Nine pellets give you more hits on target per trigger pull than a 000 buck load with fewer, larger pellets, and the copper plating helps the shot hold its shape for tighter, more consistent patterns at close range. Federal rates this load at 950 fps, a velocity tuned for short barrels and Judge-type revolvers, where standard shotgun loads can lose performance. That tuning is the main reason to choose this 410 buckshot over a generic field load for a revolver.
This 410 home defense ammo is designed for 410 revolvers like the Taurus Judge and S&W Governor, as well as 410 home-defense shotguns. It is a 3 inch shell, so your firearm must have a 3 inch chamber; it will not fit guns chambered only for 2-1/2 inch shells. It suits shooters who want a manageable-recoil defensive option for the house, the truck or the farm. Buying the 200-round bulk case lets you run enough shells through your gun to confirm function and point of impact, then keep the rest staged for the long term at a better per-round cost than single boxes.
Federal Premium Personal Defense 410 #4 Buck is made in the USA and is new production ammunition, not reloads. Each shell uses a plastic hull with a metal base and a battery cup primer, and it is non-corrosive, so cleanup after range sessions is routine. The load is 9 pellets of copper-plated #4 buckshot in a 3 inch 410 bore shell. The case ships in the original factory packaging as 10 boxes of 20 rounds, for 200 shells total.
