About this product
The Mossberg 500 Turkey .410 20″ Mossy Oak w/ Holosun HS407K is a compact, optics-ready pump-action shotgun built for dedicated turkey hunting and close-quarters field work. It's a specialized configuration of the legendary Mossberg 500 platform, chambered in .410 bore and purpose-built with a short barrel, premium camouflage, and a factory-mounted micro red dot to deliver a fast, precise shot on small game and fowl. This isn't a general-purpose field gun; it's a tool designed for a specific, demanding type of hunting where concealment and a first-shot advantage are paramount.
What is the Mossberg 500 Turkey .410 used for?
This shotgun is engineered specifically for hunting wild turkeys in dense cover. Its 20-inch barrel and integrated Holosun HS407K red dot provide a fast-swinging, low-profile package for quick shots at close ranges under 40 yards, ideal for tight blinds or brushy terrain where minimizing movement is critical for success. The included X-Full extended turkey choke concentrates the .410's pattern for a dense shot cloud, increasing the effective range and lethality of the smaller gauge, while the Mossy Oak Greenleaf synthetic stock provides durable, weather-resistant concealment.
How does the Mossberg 500 Turkey .410 compare to the Stevens 555 Sporting O/U .410?
The Mossberg 500 Turkey is a superior dedicated hunting tool for turkey, while the Stevens 555 Sporting O/U .410 is a better choice for general sport shooting. The Mossberg's pump-action design is simpler, more reliable in muddy conditions, and its 20-inch barrel is 8 inches shorter than the Stevens' 28-inch barrel, making it vastly more maneuverable in a blind. However, the over-under action of the Stevens 555 Sporting .410 offers the versatility of two chokes and is better suited for clay shooting or hunting where a follow-up shot with a different load might be needed instantly.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
Unloaded, this Mossberg 500 configuration weighs 6.8 pounds, offering a noticeable 1.2-pound advantage for carry over many 12-gauge turkey guns. Its 20-inch barrel yields an overall length of just 39.5 inches from buttpad to muzzle, a critical dimension that allows it to be handled comfortably inside most pop-up ground blinds without snagging. The receiver is drilled and tapped with a standard micro red dot footprint, and the Holosun HS407K sits at a 1.6-inch height over bore for a natural cheek weld.
Who is this NOT for?
This shotgun is not for general waterfowl hunting, upland bird hunting over dogs, or home defense. The .410 bore lacks the downrange energy and pattern density required for consistent clean kills on ducks or geese at typical ranges. For a more versatile field gun capable of handling pheasant, grouse, and waterfowl, a 20-gauge like the Stevens 555 Sporting 20 Gauge is a far better all-around choice. It's also not ideal for new shooters seeking a 'do-everything' first shotgun.
What's in the box?
You receive the complete, ready-to-hunt firearm with the Holosun HS407K micro red dot sight pre-installed and zeroed from the factory. The box includes the Mossberg 500 shotgun, the installed X-Full extended turkey choke tube, a choke tube wrench, one 3-inch .410 bore shell to verify chambering (always check local laws), the owner's manual, and the battery and mounting hardware for the HS407K. No separate optic box or additional chokes are included.
Is the Mossberg 500 Turkey .410 worth it at $710.99?
At $710.99, this package represents significant value versus building a comparable setup yourself, saving you roughly $150 in gunsmithing and optic-mounting labor. The cost breaks down to approximately $450 for the base Mossberg 500 Turkey, $240 for the Holosun HS407K, and the remainder covering the professional installation, zeroing, and convenience. For a hunter who wants a turn-key, optics-ready turkey gun in the increasingly popular .410 bore, this package eliminates guesswork and delivers a reliable, purpose-built tool out of the box.

Pros & cons
What works

Trade-offs
