Recently I picked up a very very clean 97 Whitetail Hunter in .410 caliber. A beautiful gun, very capable of harvesting deer cleanly & accurately, but it was never made.
At least not any regular production.
After talking with Doc he informed that these guns were only built in .451 & .504 and that there were never any production .410’s
He said that sometimes the guys in the shop built someone a custom order here & there that he really wasn’t aware of at the time.
I love gun history
The only flaw I can find on this gun is a tiny etching under the front scope base.
Now I have to decide, safe queen? Use it? Sell it?
