The .410 #4 shot is intended for up close restricted maneuverability use. It is very useful against snakes, with and without legs.

Outside of about 8 feet, I would agree with you and go with .45. You can always load the Judge with one .410 followed by four .45s.

I would like to see the ballistics of the .45 vs a .410 slug. Can a slug shot even be used in this revolver? Also, can the Judge fire both 2 1/2" and 3" .410 shells?
