I had the same delima. Not a lot of folks shoot .410 seriously, but if ya haunt some of the skeet ranges, quail walks, etc, ya can pick up enough to get ya started. I ended up posting in about a dozen different forums under WTB, bought a bunch from a fella out of Nebraska. Any way, good luck. As far as the 2 1/2" vs 3"--almost all mine have been 3".

Doughboy, I have a wealth of .410 hulls if you are interested. I must have 4-5000 remington SP's. If you'd like I'll go to the post office and get a box and send ya some...see if ya like them.
My experience is a remington wad (sp410) remington 209 primer (or winchester) and about 12.5 gr of lil' gun makes a fine target load with these. STS hulls work good too...as do the new Win AA HS hull...but are a little harder to get ahold of. Forget the Federals....they just aren't durable. I'm reffering to 2-1/2" hulls here. I shoot registered skeet sp 2-1/2 is all we use.
PM me if you are interested....
