You can but why would you want to? Why the rossi over the various choices in 410 from NEF/H&R?

I'd much rather be remembered for being a great shot than having the most expensive gun

it will shot  them just fine ,i had a rossi 45/410  and it shot both 2.5 & 3" just fine , winchester makes a nice 3" slug, runs 1800 fps nice thing about the rossi over NEF is at least u have a set of sights to use, aint  the best  ones in the world  but better then a plain bead  that nef sends ,

the buck  patterned tight but patterned low out of all 3 of my .410's. my homemade "buckshot" works alot better. sellier and bellot makes the factory buckshot.

reload but use .375 muzzle loader balls instead of shot. its been a while but i think 4 fit good. and leave the shot cup out
