Funny.....felt recoil, " the kick" is always an individual experience, although as arthritis has become much more my friend, my own "hand-cannons" are less pleasant to shoot groups on the range; not true for my one shot kills in the wilds, whether rifles or handguns. I've been hand loading for everything I shoot (not double deuce) for 25+ years, including my 309 JDJ in a 10" ported barrell.....the 444 Marlin necked down for a 165gr. 30 cal. round. I truly don't know it's accuracy limit on game as I live where average shots while still hunting (always walking) in mountains is 75 yards, but I did take one whitetail at 229 steps with it. It is a tack driver but took several range rounds to find the best load.
Enjoy your quail hunt with your 410. I am envious. Hunted them for years...years ago on my own farm & so exciting to hunt behind your own good dog's quivering point...."Hold.......Hold.....BAM...BAM!" Great memories and incredibly sweet delicacy.
