any ideas? i know shotgun news had something about it a while ago. something about flaring the casing to straight wall and using a .375 gas check to make a shot shell...

any other practical ideas?

Only ones I have seen where the No-1's that where converted to 410 shot shell for the colonial troops,

long rifled barrel, would more than likely blow the bejesus out of a group of shot.

now in a couple of handguns I have played with the inverted gas check followed with shot capped with another gas check, worked well for close range snakes, but thats about it
