Eny one played around with these liked to put one in the 12 gauge ole single shot maybe 410 so it doesn't kick like a mule and gets used. Or even 357 for shits n giggle.

I have a set of 28ga adapters for my 20ga. Usually use them right thru the Gamebird season. Brilliant things.

Have tried a 44Mag one, bit of a gimmick but it's only 20 bucks
there's an old thread around where Toby did a homebuild 9mm I think?
we have the .410/45 lc through a .12ga type...yip it works,yip shot goes out the end of barrel and at 15 yards it would do the job....you only have a 2 3/4" barrel to gain velocity so its not eggzachary honking along. with a lath it would be piece of cake to turn one up and if doing so make it as long as you could drill.eg 4" drilled from both ends would give you 8" barrel to gain velocity...... much better .
No idea on that but I can still hit clays with it at 30-40 yards and the 2 pheasans I shot with it last year fell down so it works as advertised. I brought them so when my nephew starts shooting he can have my 20ga Beretta and with the 28ga inserts it boots bugger all and is better than a .410.Quote:

guy on trademe does them in allsorts of calibres,basically all the low power/pressure rimmed pistol cartridges. I got friend to turn one up but his drill bit was dodgy so its not as good as it should be and is harder to remove spent case than the other one we have as inside(chamber) has drill marks.
the barrel of the shotgun its used in doesnt matter ,the choke will work to some degree but as wad is so much smaller than barrel it cant hold pressure or generate velocity, the $3-$400 chambermate types have a tube on the .410 as its just too big of difference your 12/20ga is closer by a huge amount so is more efficent.
I have a couple of .45lc loads here but havent found a reason to try them out yet.
