410 Herters Case 2½" ½oz WAA410HS H110/W296
Was through loading my standard 2½" 410 AA(HS) shells . . .
- ½oz / #9 / lead / 15.8gr/H110 / WAA410HS Wad ...when I looked over my bench and saw a couple of fired Herters hulls I ordinarily just throw away At $12/box I thought "What the heck...?" and ran them through the same MEC600JR cycle/components as the Winchester AA's I'd just finished. Perfect loadout/crimp. I'll chronograph them tomorrow to get a hint at pressure, but the perfection of the resulting shell surprised me. I'd expected to get a Frankenstein -- but the Herters looked better than the AA's. Anyone else ever reload them on a lark? |

H110/W296 is actually the long-favored shotshell powder for 410 See Hodgdon Reloading Data and/or Lyman Shotshell book. . Last edited by mehavey; November 29, 2020 at 06:43 PM. |
