I am well aware of this video. It is a sad reflection on "hunting." I guess since it does not sit well with me, it doesn't make it wrong. It is not my cup of tea. This is a canned hunt in SA. Notice the fence behind the cat. We sure got off track.

I've always had an issue with any gun where you are shooting shot through a rifled barrel. Makes no sense. How long until the rifling is shot (pun intended).

I seriously doubt that lead shot would damage the rifling in a steel barrel and certainly not from a .410.
The Judge's problems lie elsewhere.

As I recall, there are several areas going to a requirement of non toxic shot/rounds.

This is quite true. These requirements apply to hunters in areas where, as the theory goes, other critters might ingest the lead and become ill. I doubt that the Judge is either legal or suitable for any type of hunting (at least not for "game animals"!).
