Sellier & Bellot built this .410 bore shell (part no. SB410SDA) specifically for home defense, loading a 2.50-inch hull with 15 pellets of #000 buckshot for shooters running a .410 handgun or shotgun as their defensive platform. Sellier & Bellot keeps the design simple: a proven buckshot pellet count in a compact .410 shell that patterns tightly at defensive distances, which the company markets directly as ideal for home defense. It’s a common choice for shooters running a .410-chambered revolver or derringer, where standard buckshot options are limited. In shotgun shells built for personal protection, this is a purpose-specific load.
