The Nobel ANS4139 Heavy Game load delivers consistent performance for small game hunting and clay sports in the popular 410 gauge platform. This 3-inch magnum shell packs 11/16 ounce of #9 shot, providing effective range and pattern density for challenging targets.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard 410 loads that often sacrifice power for lighter recoil, the ANS4139 maximizes the 3-inch hull capacity with a full 11/16 ounce payload. The #9 shot size creates dense patterns ideal for small game at moderate ranges while maintaining enough individual pellet energy for clean harvests. This load bridges the gap between light target loads and heavy waterfowl ammunition.
Key Features
- 3-inch magnum hull maximizes powder capacity and shot payload
- 11/16 ounce of precision-graded #9 shot for consistent patterns
- High-quality plastic hull with reliable brass head construction
- Optimized powder charge for consistent velocities across temperature ranges
- 25-round boxes provide convenient range and field quantities
- Compatible with all 410 gauge firearms chambered for 3-inch shells
- Manufactured to SAAMI specifications for reliable feeding and extraction
Field testing demonstrates effective patterns out to 35 yards on small game targets, with sufficient pellet count for consistent hits on fast-moving clay birds. The magnum loading provides flatter trajectory compared to 2.5-inch shells, extending effective range for hunting applications. Weather-sealed primers and quality components ensure reliable ignition in various field conditions.
