And better to practice on this .410 than a H&H, n'est-ce pas?
I have Oscar Gady's original formula for re-casing but I still don't think it's a good idea unless it has been annealed properly. I have fire blued the way you have suggested, but it's not ready for prime time yet on a customers gun. I'll dink with it this winter.
