Too bad that happened while hunting. I have a Savage 93 22 Mag that has the same problem with Winchester ammo. But, I did a little research and found that Winchester uses a harder brass than CCI or Hornady that I've never had a misfire with.
The advantage the Brennekes have for the .410 is a much harder alloy slug. This helps them hold together and give much better penetration, but not a lot of expansion. Expansion may be an issue, only time will tell. I'm thinking this little slug will be comparable to an arrow in some ways. So a double lung shot will work the best.
I find it odd that some companies have great customer service and others do not. One would think that Brenneke would bend over backwards to keep you buying their slugs that are 50% higher priced than most of the competitors. I can't blame you for not wanting to continue using their products.
