new to pig hunting have tons of ?s
I do know what the Winchester 9410 is and I must say I think you made a VERY POOR choice in getting it for feral hogs. For those who might not know what it is the Win. 9410 is a lever action .410 shotgun.
The .410 slug is a terribly weak little round with killing power not much better than a .38 Special. You will find it woefully under powered for your use. If you insist on using it then I'd recommend confining your shots to 25-30 yards or less and shooting ONLY for the neck area. this is the quickest kill area and requires the least power and penetration of any I'm aware of. Even so the .410 slug is a very poor choice. Do not make a big hog mad by shooting it with the little slug or it might decide to "make your day".
