Is the 410 a good rabbit gun?

It is a lightweight and easy-to-handle shotgun that can be used for hunting small game, such as rabbits. The .410 shotgun typically uses a 2 1/2-inch shell that can be loaded with a variety of shot sizes, such as #4, #5, and #6. These shot sizes are suitable for hunting rabbits.

However, it is important to use the appropriate ammunition for the size of the game being hunted. For rabbits, the use of #4 or #5 shot is generally recommended, as these will provide sufficient penetration and spread to ensure a clean kill.

Additionally, the .410 shotgun is relatively quiet compared to other shotguns, which can be advantageous when hunting rabbits.
