Triple shot buckshot typically consists of three .33-inch (8.4 mm) pellets. This means the diameter of each individual pellet is approximately 0.33 inches. When referring to "triple shot," it denotes the number of pellets used in a single shotgun shell, rather than a specific diameter for the entire load.
The diameter of 000 (triple-aught) buckshot is approximately 0.36 inches or 9.14 millimeters. This size is commonly used in shotgun ammunition for hunting and self-defense, offering a balance between stopping power and shot spread. It typically contains fewer pellets per shell compared to smaller buckshot sizes, making it effective for larger game.
The answer will depend on what the pellets are composed of and how they are being "consumed".
Answer: 410 m = 1345.144 ' OR 1345 ' and 1.73 "
410 feet = 136 and 2/3 yards
Depends on the guage and length of the shell, and the size of shot used. It may be as few as 3, (.410 Buckshot) or as many as several hundred (10 g birdshot).
Not very many- between 3 and 5 pellets, depending on whether the shell is a 2.5 inch or a 3 inch. Many are 000 buck (known as triple ought) although some are in #4 buckshot. There is even one that is called 0000 buck, nearly .40 caliber.

Depends entirely on the gauge and size of shell. Can vary from 9-30
Depends on the use, and how YOUR shotgun patterns. For deer (some areas do not allow slugs or rifles, so buckshot it is) I am partial to 00 Buckshot. Larger pellets retain more energy, give better penetration.
Depends entirely on your intended end use.
Yes, for sure.
Needs to be inspected by a good gunsmith.
Quite a few. .410 shells were made in 2 inch, 2.5 and 3 inch version, paper, all metal and plastic shells. There are loaded with birdshot, buckshot, slugs, blanks and noise maker shells.
A 12-gauge shotgun shell typically contains multiple pellets, which are small, round projectiles inside the shell. The number of pellets in a 12-gauge 3" shell can vary depending on the specific type of shot being used, such as birdshot or buckshot. As a general guideline, a standard 12-gauge 3" shell with birdshot may contain around 1-1/8 to 1-1/4 ounces of shot, which can translate to roughly 200 to 300 pellets. For buckshot, there are typically fewer but larger pellets, with a 12-gauge 3" shell commonly holding around 8 to 15 pellets.
