Thread: Lead in .410 vs steel in 20

What are peoples thoughts on the .410 now that it can shoot lead and the 20 is limited to steel, does this make them comparable or is the 20 still the better option. Especially if you are thinking for introducing kids so even in 20 I don’t think we would be using 3inch shells.

I have never shot ether and I am curious, I have a young boy coming up and am starting to think about a shoty for him, he is coming up 12 but is a small kid, the pond he would be shooting next year (not this season he has to do another year sitting yet) is a perfect beginner pond impossible for a shot to be more than 30yards due to trees and the birds are flying pretty much straight at you.

Cheers
