Anyone load 410?

I put in a bid at Gunbroker on a CZ Ringneck 410. My Red Label 28 just seems too easy for these stocked pheasants.
Does anybody load 410's? I'd be interested in your pet loads.

Funny thing is Hodgen site lists Lilgun for 218 Bee but not 25-20, I wonder if they don't HAVE a rifle chambered for 25-20 to develop loads...
I also have a Bee and want to try Lilgun in it too. Both use about the same load, the 25-20 should be a bit lower pressure. Also gotta work up a Hornet load!
