When I did some research back then, I found some reference to the original round, indicating that the original shells were simply .303 rounds fire-formed by shooting them in the bored out chamber, then reloading them with shot. Don't know if that is true or not, but it would make sense, especially after the war, when there would have probably been a lot of surplus ammo around.
Have never fire a rifle cartridge in it, but have been tempted to try it.

The rounds for the orignal .410 were NOT fire-formed from rifle brass. They were simply loaded with shot BEFORE they were tapered and necked down.
Absolutley DO NOT attempt to fire a rifle round in your .410.
